5staG, dabanzy, miketayo and WafiJoe:
I contacted dupsyturvy on Twitter yesterday and she said she'll work on it and get back to me. So, I'll let you know when she does (especially you 5staG).

Alright! Wish you luck.

enigmatique:
By the way WafiJoe, there was the lady I saw you chatting with on Twitter. Seems she's Mr Aboyeji's P.A or Andela's Publicity Officer or something. Had a Yoruba name: Temi something. Can you please give me her Twitter handle so that I can get across to her too about this problem?

Sorry, don't know who you are talking about.

enigmatique:


Ah, thank you so much! Your response is very reassuring. Now I know I'm not in an unresolvable quandary. I'll definitely try it later as advised.

Above all, thanks a billion!

OnyeBig1 is right but you may want to contact @andela_nigeria on twitter to get an assurance.

Cheers

enigmatique:


Actually, it has been resolved today. That is, I got the mail with the link to the Plum test today.

Great news. Good luck!

Funny how that kids hugs Ciara.

@abe4kom, thanks for your opinion but I think this calls for celebration. We are moving somewhere. We should be proud that nairalanders are involved. That is my take. And the truth is the guys you mentioned mynd44 and seun always like to celebrate this forum and its members. Haven't you seen post like "A nairalander just released a new single", or "this was made by a nairalander"? If you haven't seen any, then you should visit nairaland more often

Cheers.

fanacy:
What is it function if i may ask

Didn't you read the post? They assist small businesses with international standard website and a decent online presence. African site doesn't always have to look ugly.

There was something here...

enigmatique:

Yes I do bro. But I've done that already and I'm doing very well with the home study curriculum. The problem is the link to the Plum test.

You get the gist?

Hmm... have you tried contacting @andela_nigeria?

enigmatique:


My brother, I have checked. Indeed, I always keep an eye on and check my spam folder. Yet, ee neva show. I'll just have to be patient a bit then.

Or you could go to this website proctor.andela.co

"To access your assessment, please login with this email address (the email address you registered with), your password will be all the characters of your email address before the @ sign. (e.g. Email: john.doe@email.com; Password: john.doe)"

You get the gist?

Moltobene:
kindly add to the whatsapp group
0...

Have you been added?

enigmatique:


You're not alone bro/sis. Give a holla/holler on this thread as soon as you get the link to the Plum Test though. And if I get it first, I'll holla.

Have you guys checked your junk folder? Didn't see mine after days. I had to check my junk folder, and I found it.

Check your junk folder. If you can't find it, you could start studying the home study curriculum, trust me, there is not much time left. Considering that the homestudy test's deadline is 8th of April. And there are 10 modules in the homestudy curriculum, and about 4 languagues to be mastered (HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Python). Here is the link for the curriculum andela.github.io/homestudy/

khaynoni:


Not yet. I mailed them yesterday and I was sent the link today. I have started the test already. I'm stuck at the OOP lab, the error message I'm getting is "An error occured while running your script" what could be the cause?

If you are sure that your syntax is correct, I will advise you check your indentation. I haven't taken the test, so if this doesn't solve your problem, stick around, someone with more experience might just respond to your question.

khaynoni:



Thanks.

I don't know if you have any idea on why they are yet to send the Home Study test. I applied on the 12th of this month.

Are you done with the curriculum?

pumpindkay:


There are some programming and technology books that takes 2years for one to read and understand and use in real life projects. Books like 'wrox professional asp.net'. Note the world professional which means you must have completed some other books or training before you can read and understand.

Someone that will design a good e-commerce website most be an experienced web programmer and experience as something to do with time. Except op needs a template installer.

A junior bricklayer may build a single shop, but shopping plazas are built by senior bricklayers.

it's been a while I visited NL

nnamdiosu:



you are so funny. see all the many experiences and technology expertise you expect the person to know and HE MUST BE BELOW 25 YEARS. shey u think we use 1 week to learn technologies abi we started learning HTML in our mothers womb. in the end na 50k una go won pay. Oya dey wait na.

And his company doesn't even have a website. It is very easy to spot companies or ceos that are not tech friendly.
