Please has anyone from cycle xxiv been invited for interview. I just finished my home study test and am wondering when d invite will come. If it is after d deadline or as soon as you have submitted and meet the cutoff mark

they will start sending invites from next wk.

He-He.... Amazing.... am a bit enthusiastic as well, finished the Home-Study test since last two weeks? or maybe last week, can't remember, lol... just pray i get called for the interview... Fingers Crossed! lol

It appears everyone who applied to cycle xxiv is done with their home study assessment my mail specified today 11:59pm as deadline. Goodluck

Glory be to God, we have successfully completed the assessment.... We hope we are invited for the interview.

Ok.
But what could be the reason?
this is the message i got

Tests
test_checks_for_isograms
test_empty_string_input
Empty string not a avalid isogram
test_it_only_accepts_strings
test_returns_false_for_nonisograms
test_returns_tuple

you didn't check for empty strings

obasiete:
house i have done this yet my code fails one test. please help.



def is_isogram(word):
if type(word) != str:
raise TypeError('Argument should be a string')
elif word == "string":
return (word, False)
else:
word = word.lower()
for char in word:
if word.count(char) > 1:
return (word, False)
else:
return (word, True)

def is_isogram(word):
if type(word) != str:
raise TypeError('Argument should be a string')
count_char = len(word)
if count_char != 0 and count_char == len(set(word)) :
return (word, True )
else:
return (word, False)


This should do justice to the empty string test

Mind my indentation... It's not nairaland is rejecting my tabs

Someone kindly help me here

I applied some days ago for the Andela program
They sent me email attached with PDF files on Python and Javascript for my home study test

Do anyone know how many days it will take for them to get back to me for my first test, especially the Saberr test

Because since they sent me those PDF files I haven't heard from them.. ..

Should I keep reading and studying the programmings and how long will it take for them to get back to me?

Thanks

Okay, thanks

But like Within how many days will they get back to me ?

I need to know so I can either increase my study pace or just maintain it

they should get back to you in 1 week interval. Its not about increasing the study pace, i think its all about getting thorough understanding of the materials. It's not really easy though. #shalom

http://www.opportunitiesforafricans.com/andela-nigeria-fellowship-2017-cycle-xxv-paid-technical-leadership-program-for-young-nigerians/

and decided to search on nairaland and that led me here. I have till June 30. I have zero knowledge as regards coding and all as am a geology graduate. Is there any chance I can make it by trying this. is coding very hard?

I am new into coding too and I just applied last week also
So I guess we are on the same page

It depends on your passion and commitment towards all this

I'm surprised o; recruitment for cycle XXIV is still on and application has started for cycle XXV already; these guys no dey take any chill o . Any interview invitees for XXIV yet?

According to timetable interview is suppose to start 19th but no invite mail yet. What's happening?

Bahddo:
it is introduced in the mail adex pasted above. Let's just say Qualified.io makes it harder to get away with trying to pass the assessment by getting external help. If they like, Andela recruitment team can even watch a playback that shows how you typed each solution code, letter by letter, line by line. They would even see where you simply did copy and paste.

Says who?

Says who?

says me, and the qualified.io homepage you didn't bother to check out. If you still doubt it, start a free trial like I did.

I think the invites are out. Check your email.

awww... Cheer up bro. Just study some more, practice writing code and try again. Many fellows had to try multiple times before they finally made it in.

Does any one know if the contract requires one to stay the entire four years with them once accepted?

the entire four years? No you don't have to, but you'd forfeit your benefits if you leave before the end of the four years. Plus there's a minimum period you must stay, after which you wouldn't be breaching any contract if you decide to leave. You'd learn more towards the end of bootcamp.

I don't think anyone would want to leave anyway. Andela is a whole different kind of awesome.

congrats. Go blow their minds

What sort of benefits if I may ask? And do you have any idea what such minimum period is?
