Stunning that Google still would even have the degree requirement. Had as much mixed results with 4 yr degree holders as with boot camp grads. 4 yr degree is quite a waste of money nowadays

Google is a giant company. They have third party recruiters source candidates for different funnels and those recruiters get a set of criteria and requirements to look for. Google has accepted people without CS degrees in the past, but this is more of a larger shift (possibly an experiment... don't know and time will tell) to more openly market to bootcamp grads. It was very hard to get a full blown legit L3 offer without a CS degree and some experience. And it still will be.
