Andela application is ongoing.
For those interested in IT....
Who can apply for Andela software developer career?
From what I learnt, Andela is looking for passionate individuals who would like to solve problems using technology, especially via software development.
You get trained to become a world class software developer.
Interestingly, you don't need to be a developer/programmer before you can apply.
What you need is the genuine passion for it...

Andela Recruitment process
1. You will take a personality test, titled Sabber Test. It's nothing, just an easy stuff to evaluate your personality and if you're a good fit for Andela mission.
2. You go through Andela Home Study curriculum (see: https://homestudy.andela.com)
3. You take a simple quiz (on Google form) based on the Home Study. It's very simple quiz.
4. If you're successful (so far), you take the main quiz which is timed. A little bit of programming will come in here but, it's all based on the home study curriculum.
5. I heard most people crash out at step 4. But if successful, you will be invited for interview.
6. If you succeed in the interview, you will be invited to 2 weeks boot camp. I know of Lagos. I think there should be Enugu and other parts of the country as well.
7. If successful during bootcamp, you gain full time employment, get trained to become a world class developer.... Which is your reason for applying in the first place.
Takeaway: if you are passionate about IT or genuinely desire to become a software developer, you are the ideal candidate.
