stevenakp:
if your answers to the questions are inline with their values and you were able to analyze your code well.

brace up and get ready for bootcamp.

I'm not sure if they take more than 50.

I'm an aspiring fellow (currently in bootcamp).
2nd attempt though and second bootcamp
cycle 29 and 31

"Steve" there is something about this name... Lol

I'm plugging in to that anointing!

Thanks for the information, that was all the interview was all about

derah213:


U have passion bros. My feedback was little passion for having nothing to show for 6 months. "if after becoming a fellow and u don't get paid for some reason, u should keep writing code". It should be the food you eat. �

I had a similar experience in my last interview. they even had to check my github account.
I don't have any project there it was just repos of toturials I was following.

Lol.. Thank goodness I didn't mention github.. Lol..
Well, I'm hoping for the best. Good luck with the bootcamp tho. I hope you do better this time.

I had my interview today. It was more of a chat than technical stuffs. What I’ll advice anyone going for the interview at andela is besides understanding your code, you should read up and understand andelas EPIC values in the curriculum, it would help.

I hope we all make it through.

It's up to you I can answer stuff you need clarity on but remember there are others here as well who want to learn as much as you so I would very much enjoy giving my input from here. As learning is good as a shared experience with different people contributing ideas I am constantly learning as well. At the moment I'm a tad to busy for a mentorship program as I am too occupied atm because I am a person that likes to give mentees my best with no distractions from my end. But do beware there are some things I will not talk about on a mail so please organise your questions appropriately.

Hi bro, how much do andela pay new intakes in the leadership technical program.
Do they provide accommodation to people not residing in Lagos but coming over for the program. Thanks

I can't tell you this, unfortunately, however, they d provide accommodation for anyone that applies no matter where they live. Newly hired developers are given preference.

@benfluleck, Please the Macbook Pros given to new fellows, are they the ones with Apple's new problematic Butterfly keyboards? (see this article).

If yes, can one request for a different machine, you know like a Lenovo Thinkpad?

If no, do Andelans get replacements/support if something goes wrong with the MBP within the warranty period?

Thanks.

I dunno about this article, we all use Mac Book Pros as it just looks more professional I am yet to meet someone in the organisation that has had this problem (maybe this was a problem with the older versions). If your laptop develops a fault we have an IT department that can fix it and give you a replacement, if it is going to take longer. Your laptop is insured from the start so any damage is by Andela.

Oh, nice to hear.

Since we are on the issue of Laptops already here, a few (I promise) more Qs:


1. While at EPIC Tower on Thursday, I noticed, on the 3rd floor where (I guess) most fellows were situated, that some had external monitors. Monitors mounted in such a way that they could be rotated along the Y-axis (on an X-Y plane).

Can just about any fellow ask for that setup, or does it come as one progresses up the "ladder"?

2. Almost every fellow I caught a glimpse of was living the "dongle life" that accompanies the new MBP thanks to it's absurd lack of legacy ports. Andela provides that dongle, yes?

3. Finally, that locker that in front that houses biscuits, Minimie chin chin and Hollandia milk ... anyone (any fellow, that is) can go there and take, ba? Abi is there a limited daily quota?

Thanks.

stevenakp:

Bootcamp don finish? Are you finally a fellow?!

Teletexter:

stevenakp:

Oh. Alright.

About the bootcamp, is it true that you folks were given tasks to complete beforehand?

Please don't misunderstand this question, are there firms running similar this pattern of programme to andelas?
@benfluleck

2. Dongles are provided for all

3. Refreshments are brought twice a day

@benfluleck

I dunno what this question is about ^

benfluleck:


I dunno what this question is about ^

I mean are there other companies that train developers in the same pattern as andela?

zanga420:

I think there are, I'm not sure but that is to do with a good product when there is something that is great you have to have competition. This means the product becomes even better.

Hi guys, has anyone gotten feedback yet from the interview

Nope not yet

You dont place advert for pension fund managers on disney junior channel, next time pls, find the right audience for you.. 90 percent of the people here are guys..

I'm among the 10% female who won't stop till she knows how to code. I need all the help I can get guys. I struggled through the Homestudy in cycle 33. Already applied for cycle 34. I really need this. If you have any material that can help me understand better, I will appreciate.

Andela has about 28% of female developers so we welcome more as long as they are ready to work

You can also use video lectures ([url]udemy.com[/url] youtube and so on), they can speed up your learning time.
I knew virtually nothing 2 months back u know. You can also get these videos for free using torrents. Do your
own bootcamps when there is time.

hope the info helps... You need crazy passion to follow these videos to the end tho

I am done with my google multiple choice questions. my technical test now remains.
Pls, I need ideas from the experienced (the ones that have already passed through the andela test stages) the type of questions to be expecting. If possible share for me to have a clue. Thanks!

Thank you so much! Youtube is helping me a lot. I will check out Udemy.com. About passion, I find the experience very exciting and you don't want to see the joy in my heart when I was able to reverse a string .

I appreciate your help
