H1 2022 CIRR results should be out this month, and I expect them to be down a little in terms of placement rates, and neutral for salaries (since salaries are only of those people placed, the people that DO get placed have similar salaries in H1/H2 2022). H2 2022 I expect to be down a lot more than H1 and we won't see those results for another 6+ months.

For Bloomtech I have seen like 3 or 4 job offers in last two months. But they also downsized and changed how they teach. I was kinda surprised at the low turn out for them.

Their CEO posts about placements all the time on Twitter and how well people are doing. He claims 100% of job seeking people from their backend program got jobs and many before graduating. Can you shed some light on those 3 to 4 job offers? I know they report graduates who get 2nd, 3rd, etc.. job offers down the road. I've worked with a few alumni from Bloomtech at Formation and Bloomtech has reported their placements in that channel even though they came to Formation afterwards and some even had work experience in between.

My info is purely from their slack channel. FEB 10 - Recharge Payments hired someone no position listed just remote (Might be data science related rather than programming) FEB 9 - Web job no name or company mentioned FEB 3 - 2 internships 1 in Medical 1 in tech no company inf

Yeah one or more of those was a Formation alumni we worked with after they went to Bloomtech and I won't disclose any more than that for privacy reasons. They do include people on their 2nd, 3rd, 4th jobs in there too so not all of those people are alumni.

Do they even publish CIRR data?

u/michaelnovati replied ·
No but they publish their own data and it doesn't tell a great picture. However they have made many changes since their last publishing.
