Meta and Amazon abruptly shut down diversity initiatives, indicating a market shift that's terrible for bootcampers and could be the final straw :(

that makes sense....but i have to get the interview first before i can frme it. from what you're saying, i'd still be cosnidered a risk based on interview performance and resume. how do i break that?

I gave the advice somewhere else but staying at one company and showing numerous promotions is a simple way to pass the 20 second resume reviews. Interview performance, I use a personal trainer analogy. You are asking how to get into shape. You can get a cheap gym membership and do it yourself (Neetcode or Algo Expert membership), you can get a personal trainer (1-1 mentor), you can join a premium gym like Equinox that has classes and trainers and a lot of options but is expensive (Formation), you can learn on your own through books and youtube videos about how to get into shape (which works if you have discipline but might take a lot longer)
