I'm sure you've seen me around in here but [Formation.dev](https://Formation.dev) might be a good number 3. We were running the numbers for an upcoming outcomes thing, and about 2/3 of people have work experience already but about 1 in 10 people have come from bootcamps with no full time SWE experience yet. So it could be an option and is almost exactly like what you said in #3 above. It's very expensive though so I wouldn't consider it lightly unless it's the right thing for you.
EDIT: I'm getting downvoted a lot in one of those weird situations where the count keep changing wildly and the comment is ranked high for something with downvotes (which is usually from people who spam downvote and their votes stop counting), so let me know why in the comments. I feel like this is a very reasonable answer to the question and wouldn't be offended if a leader at a competitor said the same thing.
