Most Nigerians passing through Andela is because of the security they offer, Andela pays while you learn. That's just the major benefit, people that are already secured and love programming can continue and better things awaits them once you have a nice portfolio

I've seen first hand, It's not just about the pay man! It's not just a challenging and fun place to be, you'll find opportunities there.

collinic:


congrats!!!

Thanks man, Getting in is the koko

collinic:


how far did u get the invite?

yep

We'll start receiving invitations tomorrow

Danielbuyner:

javascript.
by the way i just found out it's much easier to write it in python than in javascript so i think i might write just this fucntion in python.
is it allowed to do the homestudy in diffferent languages?

I'd suggest you stick with one language, but my friend did mixed his own and still got in.

Danielbuyner:
Good day, Please i am having some problem with my_sort program that takes an array and return the odd-numbers first then the even.
My my_sort function fails the test that passes an array of [45,66,90] and the one with a string

Using python or javascript?

stevenakp:


I haven't received the new one, you mean you were sent another assessment test ?

naah.. just kidding .
But the new assessment sha

Hey guys, who else has taken the previous assessment and was also sent the new one?

joeeasy44:

Yeah, the deadline is March 9th but if you start the test, and the test timer starts counting, the time will continue to count until you submit the test. Normally you're expected to complete it within four hours of starting the test, But I just realize the timing doesn't really matter.

Notice the timer turns red once it passes the 4hrs time.

collinic:
I am no longer understanding what is happening here ooo which one that submitting on time counts again. On the mail Andela sent, they specified Finally, note that the test needs to be completed by March 9th, 2018. The last time I went to the interview I submitted after 1week and I got an invite, which is 4hours count and interviewer saying. Though, I have submitted, but people should please take there time and work on it.

I was able to submit fast because I have been preparing for long. Please the deadline is 9th March check your mail!!!!!!!

stevenakp:


nobody.

I started mine for cycle 29 on the 21st of october 2017 and submitted on the 27th of October 2017......I got to bootcamp.

even if you submit in 30mins then your algorithms need to be more efficient than someone who submitted in 1wk.

you can still submit after 4hrs....guys take your time to do the home study assessment.

So they were just scoping me

stevenakp:


no, you can submit anytime even if the 4hrs elapse. it doesn't matter you can start today and submit in 2wks.

Says who? My interviewer said your ability to finish will determine if you'll be called for interview.And difference LFAs said they same thing

collinic:


The test from the home study guide, it covers basically everything about computers and programming and internet. I t has about 120questions with 6 program u need to code. I have submitted mine anyway

Basically, it's timed, and you'll have to submit it in 4hrs.

CuteLexy:
Please am having issues accessing the homestudy materials offline. I followed the download instructions, installed web server for Chrome and all. But it still loads a blank page. I'd appreciate a solution

Hey man, You can't really study the materials offline. The thing there is you can only download the pages with links to the external resource but you can't access the main material without internet.

tippyboy:
Bootcamp project in pdf format

Is the next bootcamp project still more-recipes?

collinic:


Congrat, I wish u d best!!!

collinic:
