To be fair; that doesn't mean that recruiting has to operate under the same status quo. It could end up that way, but it could also open up the doors to a friendlier way of recruiting.

Same at Tumblr and Rent the Runway. As a hiring manager I have hired bootcamp grads that showed plenty of promise, and they have all worked out great.
