Their business model isn’t working (relying on student tuition to remain operational) because unprecedented tech layoffs have scared off lots of students and perspective career changers. They scaled up their programs to meet demand in big tech hiring and now big tech is running

+1 bootcamps don't change fast enough. Like Codemsith hired a few more career support engineers (part time alumni who do zoom calls) and advertise that as massive changes to the market conditions. Bootcamps have such rigid structure and the good ones have scaled that structure well and they don't know what massive change overnight really means.
Changes at HR to add part time and beginner courses were business driven, what changes could they make to increase enrollment and not increase outcomes.
There's not much you can do in a market that doesn't want to hire bootcamp grads with no experience, other than teach people to stretch the truth and make their resumes look experienced to try to squeeze your way into jobs you aren't qualified for. I'm speaking about systematically approaching the market. I actually feel INDIVIDUALS with no experience can find creative ways of leveraging past experience to try to get jobs in a healthy way
