I hired someone who did. He was on the junior end and managed to secure the job through asking excellent questions. My overall impression was that the camp did not prepare him enough, but that he had the kind of inquisitiveness that would cause him to succeed. It's been 6 months now and he's doing well, however the first month was a little bumpy.

My experience has been that a developer bootcamp is not enough for our company, but could probably land you a junior position at an agency. The camps give you a lot of buzzwords for your resume but the actual technical knowledge is skin deep. We have a technical interview, and most bootcamp candidates won't be able to complete it.

If you do try it, remember that simply going into a company afterwords and saying, "I want to learn! See? I took a bootcamp, I can learn!" is not an effective strategy. I've had a lot of candidates try to sell me on how quick they'll pick up on something. Sorry, this isn't a learning hospital. You have to demonstrate initiative and outline your personal learning plan, and convince me you'll be the one in charge of your educational path.
