CodeSmith is still down lol

I know the people that exaggerated their resume to enter as seniors had trouble there. Their titles are non standard but Associate is FAANG apprentice Senior Associate is FAANG entry level Senior Engineer/Principal Associate is FAANG mid level Lead Engineer is FAANg senior The people who had trouble were grads with zero experience who got Senior Engineer titles who should have been Senior Associates. I mean I audited dozens of Codesmith grads to see where there are later on a small majority still has jobs as SWE but a large number did not and many had changed jobs frequently. Napkin math, illustrative only. Of the 4000 grads, several hundred have been employed by Codesmith in some capacity and I'm excluding all of them. This analysis supported me writing a letter to Codesmith encouraging them to try to be the Stanford of Bootcamps that produces the top ENTRY LEVEL talent in the industry and university recruiters fight over them. Codesmith is fudging up people's careers by pushing them to take mid and senior jobs. The people are under so much pressure, we see them fudge resumes. Such incredibly high potential people are steered to the wrong jobs and it frustrated me a lot. It's one of my three core criticisms of Codesmith for years now.
