Not remotely true. No degree, 0 coding experience, 3 month job search. Either you had a bad experience at a boot camp, in which case you shouldn’t paint the entire industry with a single misguided stroke, or you’ve never been to a boot camp and have no idea what you’re talking ab

OC is right for most people. It doesn't mean there aren't exceptions. I saw someone with zero experience, entirely self taught, no bootcamp, get an entry level full blown SWE job at FAANG-level company in fall 2022. That doesn't disprove every single person who says FAANG was frozen, FAANG had no entry level, FAANG doesn't hire people that proudly talk about having absolutely zero experience, and I almost never talk about this person because it's atypical.
Also why every post on here asking for people's personal outcome or salary and which bootcamp they went to are useless... if I talked about this person all over those would be misleading to others who are self taught, just like it's misleading to others to represent one outcome as the norm.
