That an interesting experience. I've never seen someone that can take a 12 week bootcamp and pass leetcode style questions. Bootcamps teach short term facts, not problem solving or at least that's my experience. I'm not saying leetcode questions are the best (no idea) but in general, someone who can generally answer them has a higher chance of being a productive developer than someone who can't and bootcamp students rarely can in my experience.
