> Every single bootcamp recognizes that this is not a great way to train engineers

This isn't quite true. I work for Hack Reactor and we're doing well with this model. But every single staff member is also passionate about our students (including those at top), so that might explain why we work if others do not.

Hack Reactor and App Academy are legitimate and do their best, but a 75% hiring rate after 6 months according to CIRR is less than ideal by al accounts. I’m certain that would be closer to 100% with another few months.

I propose a long bet, Lambda vs HR: winner is the first to cross 90% on one CIRR reporting period with >300 students.

PS yall are awesome <3 love the material you keep putting out.
