I graduated right at the start of 2022. Just took me longer to find a job cuz I learn slow. Don’t think it was the instructor because the cohort before and after mine were both super close. As in they set up many events to meet in-person (Same lead instructor for the whole year)

My theory for this is that I see ebbs and flows with how much demand there is to get in. When demand is low and cohorts are open until the last minute, they let in people who more recently got into the community and are less engaged. When there is a backlog, they have people clamoring for months to get in and they let in the most "Codesmith"-y people who will perpetuate the culture and spread the good word.
