A lot of developers from bootcamps are not landing jobs. A lot that are are not landing them at strong tech companies that have rigid hiring bars. DSA still dominate the top tier company interview processes.
I work with a lot of people who did bootcamp -> job, and work on DSA amongst other skills to help level up to top tier roles and it's a very lacking piece.
I don't think bootcamps teach DSA properly for a few reasons:
1. They generally don't have staff who are good at it
2. It takes time and bootcamps are short, so they focus on the easiest to train skills
3. DSA are hard and people already find bootcamp material hard and stressful, so a heavy DSA focus would probably make even more people leave.
