What about their career services, what’s the job outcome of the typical student

Dancing can give a more confident answer. I'm not familiar with their career services other than that they have a job hunting unit now that I think is new and possibly not live yet. I believe when they started, they had no job hunt support other than a job listing board (that was nothing special). Based on feedback I think they added an additional paid unit: [https://www.nucamp.co/bootcamp-overview/job-hunting](https://www.nucamp.co/bootcamp-overview/job-hunting) NuCamp does not provide much job outcome data because they are focused on student happiness more. They ask people if they feel their new skills are useful, etc... I actually think this isn't trying to cover up poor results, but they just don't believe you should expect a job after and they want to make sure people feel like the course was at least somewhat useful or very useful. NO IDEA IF NUCAMP FOLLOWS THIS: but the trend with online cheaper courses is that a lot of people drop out and do not complete them, like the majority. So traditional outcome metrics are hard to compare to because people were not super serious about getting a job to start with.
