I'd like to add to this: I've come from a bootcamp program and I've been a SWE for three years now. I will say, the bootcamp I went to didn't give me a great foundation for my career. It's been quite a struggle, but I'm constantly progressing in my career. I'm self-taught without a CS degree. That being said, How would Formation help those that want to get into companies like Airbnb? How does it differ from a bootcamp? I've been looking into joining Formation, but I'm worried it would be another bootcamp experience. I want to be able to feel confident in code I write and potentially achieve my goal of getting hired at Airbnb/Google

I agree with the bootcamp comment: The bootcamp I went to promised a job at the end and instead, I had to work my ass off to get a job on my own. I think I was 1 of 3 people in my cohort (40 people) to get a job.
