The graduation rate is irrelevant, as a very selective bootcamp that works hard to make sure everyone learns and has a 100% grad rate will put out higher quality folks than a dev-mill that doesn't care what folks do and has a 75% grad rate. The base fact is bootcamps vary in quality. As a hiring manager it would be in your best interest to take a day to visit the bootcamps you see on resumes and get a sense for what goes on there, you will get a very quick sense of which ones are legit and which ones are not. (I say this only as a graduate of a bootcamp)

That sounds fare, however the reality is this is a global market: I asses a CV from a Mexican guy/girl who went through a US bootcamp while I'm a hiring manager in Berlin. An actual coding chalenge still helps though.
