I just don’t think lying should be the answer, or misleading people. Even if it’s hiring managers, recruiters or etc.

I PERSONALLY agree, but I still want to deeply understand why people who also agree have gone down this path after thinking they wouldn't. I feel it leaves me with a nuanced understanding to help people navigate... but this my job and my prerogative
I find the way that Codesmith itself defends the mid-level and senior target roles more bothersome because it puts pressure on people to do this and they too have seen thousands of people go through the program and deeply understand why they are doing it.
