>>Enroll in Nanodegree Plus, and get a job in 6 months or 100% of your tuition back

Would it be cynical of me to assume Udacity will consider it's in-house contracting agency "getting a job"

The iOS programming course is dangerously outdated. If I really needed to learn iOS I would get one the many available on Udemy, instead of the only one available on Udacity.

Full disclosure, I work at Udacity, but it's worth mentioning that our iOS program was just refreshed literally 3 days ago, so I'd encourage a second look!

Thats a great play. Completing the food chain. Udacity started with university courses, then saw demand on more job oriented courses and moved accordingly. Now they are moving to where the current demand from their customers is - actual paid work for the new skills. Who better to connect those dots. Students graduate into Udacity controlled work. Then move on to other jobs which require more resume experience

Udacity Blitz wants you to hire away their best engineers after working on your project... well, well, well
