An ~18 month journey to SUCCESS!!

There are about 5% of people that might overlap is my estimate. So if you don't have 1 year as a SWE or a full time job that will be 1 year by the time you are job hunt ready then we won't even accept you and will reject you, I ironically recommend Codemsith often for ambitious people who are trying to move a little too fast but don't have that yet. If we reject you and you spend a significant time talking to the team and we do think Formation is a good fit for your goals and your goals likely aren't 200K job in that case, we may accept you or wait-list you because we limit the number of people in that bucket. These are also the people who might show up in this subreddit in the very limited talk that there is about Formation (and also why stuff in this sub is likely not representing the typical person at Formation). Our reporting is clear on what YOE means in that context and it excludes internships and contract work so people might show up in that bucket for reporting but they actually have SOME complicated experience equivalent to the minimum bar to be accepted. But other than that I really don't see anyone overlap. Maybe Codesmith feels differently and that's why all these people attack me about being here to sleazily steal students. I use my real name so people can judge my credibility and biases in interpreting my comments - something I wish more people did - and not recruit anyone for anything.
