I taught at a bootcamp. My takeaway was that out of a class of 30 there were roughly 5 individuals I would want to work with as developers for sure and maybe another 5 potential. The remaining 20 I wouldn't want to work with at all. I disagree on the conclusions from the author here. A lot of these people were just naive and foolish. They genuinely believed they were going to be interviewing with facebook and linkedin and get several job offers (they didn't).

The reason we don't hear more about them is because they feel shitty about it and keep a low profile.
