I totally get that. As someone pointed out bootcamps would probably be good if you've got enough experience for them and you think you could operate under that format, but i would very much recommend avoiding getting yourself into a bunch of debt. But, all that being said, I'm completely out of touch with the corporate world nowadays and what they're requiring as far as qualifications.
I took a Python boot camp actually and did well. Passed the PCEP cert with 85%. Thing is it seems most jobs want you to know way more than Python now and idk what to do next.
I'm not sure that's true, consider "grinding leetcode" and applying to bigger tech companies that will have a standardized interview where they mostly just test leetcode questions
I'll consider that
Find what interests you. Like if you can make it through a python boot camp you probably have enough literacy to do a bootcamp for what you want to be doing. If you wanna be a l33t hax0r for the revolution like I said, python is a great starting point as you can write exploits and work with most of the machine learning libraries out there.
If this is a path you might be interested in check out bug bounties and CTF sites. https://www.youtube.com/@NahamSec
