Please... I need to know the criteria for selection. Is it the problem solving, task management or innovation. If it is whats the safe score to get. |

firdaus1: Hi Iyinoluwa, I'm sure the Andela Fellowship would be a great experience but how much is the pay? I'm considering leaving a pretty decent job for a shot at Andela so I'm really concerned about what the pay is during the 3 month internship, after confirmation and how it progresses through the 4 year fellowship. Some say its 80k during the internship but online, it says $500/month. Now that the exchange rate has spiked, it would be appreciated if the real value of $500 actually reflects in the salary as the cost of living in Lagos skyrockets. Please clarify the payment at all the stages for those that are going for the bootcamp. It would be such a waste to find excellent candidates who would turn down an offer after they find out how much the pay is. |

electricity:my advice. dont quit your job until you after bootcamp. Until you become a fellow. Making it into bootcamp does not gurantee you will be taking in the end |

Taiw: Yup. You took the words right out of my mouth. |

Hello Iyinoluwa, If unsuccessful applicants can show proof of competence in the web technologies Andela clients demand, can they get an automatic invite to the interview or automatic admission into bootcamp, because the current shortlisting process has denied talented programmers like myself, the opportunity to become andela fellows. Thanks and a reply will be appreciated. |

WilBak: Our aptitude test is a data-driven process that we use to find out who will be a good fit for the Andela fellowship. Our aptitude test helps us find fast learners who are smart, bright, and hardworking young people with a strong desire and drive to be great software developers. We are also looking for potential leaders who are easy to coach and working with and are very strong team players. Our confidential proprietary formula for figuring this our through a test that was created by looking at our most successful fellows and reverse engineering the data to find more people like them. My best advice is to take the application when you are able to focus and take your time so you can give it your best shot. Also don't try to game it. Think about your values and personality and answer the questions honestly. |

Firdaus1 I applied to class vi, was invited to the interview stage but didn't make the bootcamp, I still don't understand why I didn't make it because there was no technical question @ d interview stage, I reapplied to class vii with the same test score, I received the home study material but was not invited to the interview stage, I was perplexed. My suggestion is since one passed the cut and was invited to the interview stage. Why not invite everyone who passed the online test to the bootcamp even if it will be in stages, then you can pick the best to the fellowship program The bootcamp could be done online, or during weekends for those who cannot be there full time, due to there busy schedule. And for those who reside outside lagos state accomodation could be provided. You can increase the difficulty level of the online test so as to reduce the amount of persons who would pass the online test stage. |

So now, i'm done with the home study test conducted by Andela today. My score is 591. Now i'm scared as I don't know if this score will bar my chances from scaling through to the boot camp stage after my scheduled interview on Thursday. @firdaus1, please, what are my chances? 1 Like |

Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by Nobody: 2:24pm On Mar 23, 2015 |
toystars:what time did you do yours? And when is your scheduled interview date? |
Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by toystars: 2:32pm On Mar 23, 2015 |

toystars:okay. All the best. Have you programmed before? |
Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by toystars: 2:58pm On Mar 23, 2015 |
codebrew85: Thanks. You too. Yeah. Some php, java and C. |

Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by firdaus1: 4:24pm On Mar 23, 2015 |
GabrielShaze: Great questions 1. The projects that are submitted during the bootcamp vary a whole lot. Each person submits a project so there is such a wide range. However, the projects that come out of bootcamp will basically require you to use the fundamentals of programming and javascript that you have learnt during the homestudy and bootcamp. If you take the time to prepare well using these resources you will have no problems at all. Check out the homestudy curriculum here (http://curriculum.andela.co/homestudy/) and the bootcamp curriculum here : (http://curriculum.andela.co/bootcamp/) 2.Yes. You are always welcome to reapply to the Andela fellowship. Lots of current fellows have re-applied and made it through. We now recruit every month so its a lot easier to re-apply on apply.andela.co. 3. Beyond technical skills we are looking for smart, bright and hardworking young people who are very passionate about technology and software development. If you are simply trying to get a job or figure out if you like software development, this isn't the best program for you. We want people who have the desire and drive to be world class software developers in four years. 1 Like |

Icecream4U: Thank you for the feedback about housing for bootcamp. It is noted. As for the interview process, we have now introduced a test for the Home Study Curriculum (http://curriculum.andela.co/homestudy/) so we can encourage people who are truly passionate about software development to get started learning how to build software before even applying to Andela. |

toystars:Good. |
Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by firdaus1: 4:30pm On Mar 23, 2015 |
Rorschach: There is no real way for me to know. But you can always re-apply on apply.andela.co. Deadline day is still pretty far off so you can apply now to make sure you don't you don't apply late. ![]() |
Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by firdaus1: 4:41pm On Mar 23, 2015 |
Rorschach: Thank you for your question/suggestion. Although it is true we currently accept 6-10 fellows a month and we have a very stringent selection process, it is also important to us that we keep our standards very high. We currently accept every qualified candidate to the program. The more qualified candidates apply, the more we will accept so please if you know anyone who is qualified, tell them to apply to Andela at apply.andela.co |

firdaus1: I would like to know if the projects submitted in the bootcamp are the participants' creative ideas or the organizers have mapped out project ideas for each participant to work on. Thanks |
Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by firdaus1: 4:51pm On Mar 23, 2015 |
codebrew85: You become an Andela fellow when you receive an offer to join the fellowship after our 2 weeks bootcamp. After the 2 weeks bootcamp fellows proceed into the 3 months immersion training after which they will be placed with clients while continuing their training for the next four years after they have joined the fellowship. Most people make it through the 3 months immersion training but occasionally some fellows are dropped because they aren't progressing as quickly as they should. This is a very rare occurrence because we have a very stringent selection process which we continue to improve. |
