Lots of questions but how about this to start on 1. Why are you no longer a believer in the bootcamp model? 2. Given your role in hiring and team building, can you give insight into why you think companies are doubling down on top tier computer science grads in this market and shutting out bootcamp grads? (Feel free to challenge the premise here if you aren't seeing that trend, not meant to be a loaded question) 3. Expanding on 2, do you see trajectory differences in bootcamp grads vs computer science grads and do you think there is an actual skill gap that impacts people later in their careers? Or once you have a job for a few years, the credentials are irrelevant?
