Single input should take the strings seperated by a comma. This is the instruction

Good job man.

naijanoni:
Guys abeg help me scrutinize before I submit.

Did they request that both Strings must be entered in a single input? Why not create 2 input spaces.

Good morning Ben please I have some questions regarding the bootcamp and would like to chat with you on whatsapp.
Here is my whatsapp number. 070-697-22-696 thanks

Last? Like there won't be anymore chance to apply this year? Thought it was a monthly stuff.

guente02:
Unless they've changed you won't need to use any front end framework throughout bootcamp. Perhaps when you get admitted as a fellow.

But one would still need the backend part right?

fxdrizzle:
seen. I wonder why there's no angular in their home study curriculum. I guess the best thing to do is to learn at least the basics of everything so you won't be clueless regardless of what they hit you with.

When I finish curriculum, I fit try angular again. The funny thing is they have introduction to react in the homestudy, but when they were asked if one needed reactjs, they said no.

Judahudoh:
What do you think is the best approach, stay back and learn some more? I didn't even do the second test when I realized the game was tougher and for other reasons I knew I was not ready.
Nevertheless, I think if I find someone around me preparing for this, it will push my effort the more. Am focusing on next year. I was sent the link to this last cycle which will close in days and I still feel like its better to focus on preparation though I would love to experience the second test for posterity.
Pls let's connected. WhatsApp - 08121129573.
I think we need an insider advice on these please. Guys what are ur opinions. Especially those already on board

Next year is far na. If you know JavaScript, you could become knowledgable on the rest in 2 or 3 months. The database part is easy. You just need to sweat small for node.

fxdrizzle:
this is from Friday's Q&A session. There's no mention of angular. I may be wrong though...

Check this out.

Pre Bootcamp mail for cycle 36 is out!!!
Just got mine.
The real deal is on!!!
Best of luck to us all.

Abeg, anyway I could get your mail or maybe I should give you mine? Make I pick your brain about your experience at the bootcamp.

flashBang:
Oh! you definitely don't know andela that much. if you finish the test very late, regardless of your performance, you will not make it in unless you are lucky that only few people finish before you and only few perform better than you.
it has been tried on multiple accounts with same answers and solutions to all questions. For the first test, only the ones that finish within 30mins to 1hr is more likely to make it to next stage.

As for second test, if you finish after 2hrs, your chance of making it drops tragically.

Want to know why? the questions have become repetitive and many people already have the answers perfected in advance and they just copy/paste.
After the test is scored based on performance, then there is a further cut-off based on time...... believe it or not.

When gold becomes common it loses its value. likewise, your performance means nothing when too many people are performing equally or even better.

Your assumptions might be incorrect. I flirted with the deadlines for both tests. For the first test, I submitted a day before the deadline. I just couldn't make out time to do it. In the second test, I submitted 6minutes to deadline. That's 11:54pm on the day before the deadline. Cycle 36.1

I got called for interview which I didn't attend, because I am still not familiar with node, express, postgreSQL, SQL and Angular (not AngularJs).

I am not sure if all these libraries, frameworks and languages are compulsory to make it through bootcamp. I did get the allusion from tweet replies from Andela that one might need Angular to stand a chance. Initially, I thought it was React, but now I dey hear another thing.

I really wish I don't have to learn Angular. It is difficult, and I don't like it. There must be someone here who has been to bootcamp. Perhaps such a person could tell us how much of this backend stuff one needs to know for bootcamp. I am already drowning, and I still feel like I don't know anything. Let me get back to observing.

shimmer1:
Lol, I have a friend that applied for ALC 36.1 because he was also part of ALC (I think it was specially opened for you guys ). The deadline was yesterday so you guys should be expecting your mails soon.

Cycle 36 deadline was August 08. So don't confuse yourself.
Keep calm.

36 is different from 36.1
Just like iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s

Lol. Thanks.

DonPikko:
andela is the number one best company in nigeria

Lol... Yeah, I hear you.

DonPikko:
the bootcamp is not for novice o,your kungfu must be very strong, at least the guys i knew that got in, have been programming consistently like for a year, you need to work your ass off, the bootcamp is beyond just html, css, and js

If I had been programming consistently for a year, I wouldn't go for Andela.

Solomon27:
I am... my deadline too was yesterday... but had submitted lastweek... didn't do it well, thou!

Ok I am not alone.

Why you no come do the test wella? It wasn't as hard as I expected.

Wait fes. Wetin I dey read here no dey rhyme. I dey my own jeje when Andela send me mail as per member of ALC 3.0 to apply for Andela Cycle 36.1, I did.

I really didn't see myself as someone qualified for Andela fellowship. I wasn't exactly looking in their direction gan sef. Then I thought, well they did send me a mail asking me to apply. Perhaps they think I am ready.

My deadline for submission of the challenge was by (not before) August 13. I submitted on August 12, around 11:50pm. They even sent me a mail encouraging me to try and finish before August 13.

I am quite sure I am part of Cycle 36.1, but here I see people claiming to be part of cycle 36.1 saying they had a deadline of August 8th and stuff about interview.

Now I am really confused. I am yet to get any mail. I'm still waiting. I won't be happy if they simply raised my hope just to smash it.

Anyways, is there anyone here who was part of ALC 3.0 who was sent a mail by Andela to apply?

DonPikko:
longest word in a sentence?, you might not need to use a loop tho, just convert to array, then sort asc, then return the first item

Just wanted to do it without sort.

guente02:
You seem to be spelling length as lenght. Check that and reiterate through your logic. You're getting something wrong somewhere in there.

Thanks man. My brain been dey turn

Can someone tell me what might be wrong with this?

isaacosas01:
I can't even register on the portal, errors everywhere!

I am using UC, maybe you ought to try it out as well. Chrome couldn't even get me registered.

After filing my education details, I can,t seem to go any further; It is all error error from there.

Sending me mail after I have forgotten I applied for graduate trainee. I don't know between First bank and Stanbic who has the slowest recruitment process. Phew!

So after that easy examination, this people still no select me.

Crystalng:
The fewer the number of people praying, the better for us, please stop encouraging people to pray.

They do not need encouragement. They were born to believe in miracles and fantasy.

GIGATT9:
It's sectioned......

Thank you. I will just have to do maths last.

See all the English they have been speaking here. Abeg for people wey don write, I wish to know if maths has its own section, while English has its own section and a different section for logic. Basically, does each topic have its own section or they are all mixed up?

I got this message today. I don't even know what I applied for. They didn't even state anything on the mail. Advice will be appreciated please

Bro, I empathise with you. You said it all yourself,those who pass the test are not super human. So, what do they have? It's PREPARATION.

By now, you must have written a lot of tests. Apart from KPMG, I believe others allow you to write more than once. Get GRE, GMAT and SHL past questions. Practise, practise, practise. It will shock you how good you'll become in a short while.

Also, have you tried alternative routes. I want to believe you have been doing something since last year. If not, volunteer, intern. After doing this for a while, you'll be surprised how much experience you'll get and opportunities that will come.

Getting a job in Nigeria ain't easy, but you will get it. Soon. Don't give up. Don't subscribe to the mentality of man-know-man. Yours truly doesn't know anyone, and I got in.

Be good.

Thanks

olagunjumariah:
brother how we go solve dis matter?

We will keep trying noni. Perhaps one day, we will be on the other side of the table.

Sometimes I just wonder if I will ever get a job in this country. And all those advice about reading one's book and coming out with good grades, well, I don't think it works. At the end of the day, one has to cross these high hurdles of assessments and interviews. They don't even give one enough to write the exams. About 48 seconds for each question. And one has to work with fractions and decimals; multiplication, addition, division and subtraction; and the usual question of totalling the whole data in a table. I won't talk about the abstract reasoning, especially the last one with EY, after so many long hours of practice, one couldn't even boast of six questions. They just stay there on the screen staring at one and looking like product of alien machination mocking one's feeble attempt at decryption.

And each time I interact with these people, those who actually crossed these hurdles and got the job, they don't particularly strike me as extremely intelligent; just normal humans. I have never written any exam twice, but these aptitude tests, although very simple, keep making me reach for the earth.

I have been cheering up since May, 2016. Perhaps I will cheer up after letting it out. Each assessment, each interview takes a swipe at my confidence. I never should have wasted six years chasing a degree. Knowledge is power? No sweetheart, knowledge is power after you have made money, a lot of it.

Make una no vex I just dey weak and sad �, had to let it out.
