…I am sick of agencies and HR portals etc. All I ended up was waste of time jumping through the circus hoops, while the only beneficiary was probably the agency who farmed resumes to sell them to some other client like the CDOs in Finance...

I am a largely self-taught, very highly motivated and the non-pedant efficiency-loving programmer since 2015 (Python, Rust, Julia mainly, but can learn fast), and since you are all talking about job offers, I want to ask for your opinion:

Would you hire a graduate of the www.launchschool.com ? I am contemplating solidifying my programming by blazing through their program since I have slow-learned code for 4 years, so I would not be a typical "studious beginner". I just want to fill some gaps as well as be able to ameliorate the word "self-taught" by adding Launchschool and its projects to my resume.

Any thoughts? Thank you for your valuable advice.
