My IV, chilling in my mail. God I thank u.

Now they are doing Test b4 interview

circular:
The interview is by next week (I guess). Hve anybody received invitation mail?

I just got an IV for the interview.

Godisnear:
So Boot camp is now secret service or Top secret that one is revealing any info. Serasera even tried by answering present. Anyway, wish u all the best but I still dey vex sha. After hiding all this info, make sure u pass cos if I see any of you applying again eh, oooooohhh ! na supreme court go judge d matter.

Boss, e never reach vex na. Lol. We're at the project stage now. There's so much to do, guys hardly visit the Internet. There's just not enough time. I guess that's why there are no contributions here from current bootcampers. Please bear with us, when you get there you'll understand.

In the meantime, congrats to all those who've been invited for interviews. Please do yourself a favour and finish the homestudy curriculum. It would help tremendously during the bootcamp. Best success to everyone.

Apply with a different mail, and make sure u score higher....I thought they took problem solving more serious or as a benchmark

I got this message. I really felt it would prompt an IV. Am yet to receive any.

I actually have a lot of questions, but your coming here to throw the floor open for questions has actually answered 95% of my questions. The remaining 5%, I'll come and ask later.
May God continue to bless visionaries like you.

But seriously, what's the criteria or cut-off mark to qualify for the interview stage after taking the online test by plum ? javascript:void(0);

Hello Iyinoluwa,

Thanks for coming on here to answer questions some of us have had for a while

1. What type of projects are recruits in the boot camp expected to submit after their 2 weeks training?
2. Can someone who didn't make it to becoming an Andela Fellow reapply? (i.e after he/she must have been to the boot camp)
3. Lastly, beyond technical skills, what qualities do you believe a potential programmer (who doesn't just want to write code but solve problems) should possess?

Thanks

i want to suggest that ANDELA should have accommodation for the two weeks bootcamp cos some applicants stay very far from herbert Macauley and some even stay outside Lagos. i also want to suggest that there be a change in the interview style cos the current style is not it at all. A smart lier who haven't even set his/her eyes on the homestudy page might scale through to the bootcamp jeopardising the chances of great coders. What I'm trying to say is that, if there is an actual test during the interview, you will see a huge increase in performance during bootcamp. This thing has to do with coding talent not lieing talent.

Does applying on deadline day mean an automatic NO? I did well in the online test (80, 78, 89) but took it very early on the 15th which was the deadline for Class VII applications..could that explain the regret mail I saw earlier today, or were my scores too low?

Also, Andela have done extremely well to pioneer TRUE software engineering education in Nigeria but with around 10 Fellows being admitted from a pool of ~500 applications per Class, it seems the selection process is too stringent. With the backing and financial musculature that Andela boasts, I think they could and should open that door just a bit more, or partner with corporations in the U.S. and elsewhere that would do the same commendable thing they've done here.

you do know that these 10 people come in quick succession, right?

Erza:

please, i want to be very clear about this, how many people are eventually selected after the 3months immersion training to become Andela fellows?

I think that's why a "Home Study Test" has been introduced before the interview part for class VIII

do well and you're in

adedipo:


Ok, I've reapplied again with another account. If I'm not selected this time, I will swear for Andela, lol.

Please when you reapplied, did you use another email address entirely?

What is the cut off for the online plum

tolularson:

Yes, I used a different email address, like a new application.
