Yes but in CIRR they have 5% of people who are not doing a job search and 5% that did not graduate so you can already take off 10% of people. I think this is odd and they should include **every** person but it does mean that actually 26 of 36 is more like 80% of those remaining

80% in ONE YEAR vs 80% in SIX MONTHS is very different. Imagine people went to an interview prep program after and got a job from that, all within the 12 months... Codemsith still gets credit. The longer the time period the more people do on their own afterwards that contributes to their job than. And the portion any bootcamp would claim for the success of failure at that point is lower and lower. That's my point here, not that it's not a good point that people are getting jobs but just taking longer.
