This got downvoted and I'm not sure why. But I ran some numbers this evening as we are trying to figure out how to explain our numbers and one stat stood out showing the differences more: 25% of placed Formation Fellows accepted jobs at LITERALLY the five FAANG companies - Facebook/Apple/Amazon/Netflix/Google (this doesn't include Microsoft, which is another chunk, and doesn't include some additional people who got FAANG offers and turned them down, or all the people at top-tier/FAANG-level companies as well).
Just for anyone else reading this because my first stab might not have hit the mark on the difference in audience.
