I studied a bachelor CS / master CS, having worked for 2 years (odd jobs as a dev), and I have to struggle interview after interview by myself. I dream about getting this kind of mentorship from a such an amazing company. Yet, when I apply to Stackoverflow, I don't even get a chance to be interviewed. The mentorship that she received is so super lucky, I hope she realizes that.
I'll bet you this: if I (or most CS master graduates from The Netherlands [1]) would receive a similar kind of treatment, then they'd nail that software developer position in terms of skill [2].
[1] I can't comment on other CS master programs, but I've followed lectures at: Utrecht, Amsterdam (both of them) and have seen what they're capable of at Delft.
[2] I'm not making claims about culture or communication.

She moved internally, has a lengthy employment history and was backed by her manager, there was no loss to the company here as knowledge of previous projects would stay with them. There is hardly any way to compete against that from the outside.
