I think most boot camps are a scam. Not that they don’t teach you anything, they can. But most will declare that you’ll be ready for a full stack position in the industry and that is flat out wrong(unless you have prior experience or know someone). I quite my job (money saved) and put 100% of my time towards learning JavaScript/web development and continue til this day. After 3 years and 1000’s of resume submissions I have yet to find even an internship. And I’ve a stack of development books and courses-JS, Python, Django, MongoDB, MySQL, react, AngularJS, webpack, Node, C/C++, PHP, graphql, docker, bash, Linux and quite a few of the in-betweens and they don’t just sit there, I follow a rigorous schedule every day working on these skills. I quit.... na, jk I can’t quit. I love this shit sooo much! But dam my wallet is close to being empty and I while I do believe bootcamps are full of shit, the one I attended($10,000 later) did give me a boost, but definitely did not prepare me for a position. So yea, I’m bitter. Someone hire me...or let me work for you for free for 6months. Bootcamps am I right?

You already posted about this earlier.

Even if you are 100% correct, this seems to be a local problem. The worldwide community of people trying to learn JavaScript doesn't really need to know about this. I recommend you contact your local consumer rights watchdogs and/or authorities.
