Andela has new fellowship opportunities- For women only



Andela has announced a ‘one-of-a-kind opportunity’ for females in Nigeria to fellowship with the organisation. The Fellowship is a four-year, paid Technical Leadership Program designed to shape you into an exceptional software engineer. The Company wants to ensure the digital revolution gets not just to Lagos but to the female folk. All you need to have is an interest in technology, be detailed oriented and hardworking.  And of course be female (Sorry guys, this one not for you but you can inform the ladies) Prior experience or education in the field is not necessary.

The selected women will be taught the basics of software development by a team of experienced engineers and given the opportunity to work with top global companies. Application deadline is 30th October 2016.

THE APPLICATION PROCESS

Stage 1: Application and Aptitude Assessment
First, you’ll complete an application, which lets us learn more about you. Once we receive your application, we’ll email you (within 2-days of your application) an online test that measures logical reasoning and personality fit.

Stage 2: Home Study
Next, you’ll need to complete an introduction to software development self-study course focused on Python. You can find the downloadable version of this course here. During the course, you’ll complete a Proctor test that will evaluate your knowledge of the content you’ve learned. You will also be invited to a Slack Community called “Open Andela” to help guide and encourage you throughout the process.

Stage 3: In-Person Interview
Based on performance on the Aptitude Assessment and Proctor test, we invite a select group of applicants to interview with Andela. If selected, you’ll receive an email one week prior to the interview stage, inviting you to a panel of interviews made up of staff members and fellows at an Andela Campus.

Stage 4: Two-Week Boot Camp
Successful applicants participate in a two-week, full-time Boot Camp at an Andela Campus led by our senior engineers. You’ll be expected to learn independently as well as work on a team to deliver a final project. We’re looking for determination, work ethic, passion, and teamwork. Boot camp runs from 1st December - 9th December

Stage 5: Acceptance
The highest performing participants are accepted into Andela’s four-year Technical Leadership Program.
