Wow, this doesn’t even look like the normal “hiring”/jobs post. Just a funnel straight into a potential scam :/ Shocking to see it here.

It looks like they might be using a loophole since their product is training for jobs they are using that as a substitute for, “we’re hiring.”

> Just a funnel straight into a potential scam

They claim that they do not charge you anything. So, how can they scam you? Of course, besides your hours and the potential outcome (code). Just curious.

Research the issues Lambda School had, particularly how "free" turned out to not be free.
To be fair they also claim they will give you $200k...
