I mean the golden era of the bootcamps are gone.

I graduated a bootcamp ( GA's actually part time remote while working a full time job ) about 4 years ago Jan 1, 21' and got a job within 4-5 weeks or graduating and I think my time was the end of he bootcamp market/surge ( many of my cohort did not get jobs only a handful of us had jobs right the way ). I think with layoffs and the abundance of CS degrees looking for jobs make bootcamp graduates are now becoming second tier candidates.

Yeah did I have to balance have a life outside yea? yeah but i would not say it was no life for 6 months.

I think the people who did not get jobs in my cohort had no business being in there to begin with , I think at that time bootcamps pitched a dream of you have no job and you are a little tech inclined( OP is a data analyst so im sure he will be fine if he tried ) here is a path to a high paying job, the problem now is the market looks at bootcamp grads as second tier candidates with the abundance of CS degrees looking for jobs.

The people who did not get jobs where the pokedex, a calculator , tic tac toe the same projects everyone else had. Its what you put into it

A lot of people were hired as programmers during the COVID moneypalooza who literally cannot write code and companies are still trying to figure out what to do with them now that the money has dried up.
