Cohort! We are eager to welcome more technologists into Andela, grow the
community and in the process change the world.


As an influencer in your community and within your networks, we are

Africa.

enable you to own your learning as you hone the skills you need to become a
global technology leader. We seek out exceptional people from a variety of
backgrounds who are committed to unlocking their full potential and
improving the world through technology.

Through four years of intensive learning and real work experience on the
world’s leading engineering teams, you’ll master the professional and
technical skills needed to become a global technology leader.

THE APPLICATION PROCESS

Stage 1: Application and Aptitude Assessment

First, you’ll complete a free application, which lets us learn more about
you. Within 48 hours of your application, you will receive an online
evaluation that measures logical reasoning and personality fit.


Stage 2: Home Study

You’ll need to complete an introduction to software development self-study
course <http://andela.github.io/homestudy/> focused on Python. You can find
the downloadable version of this course here
<https://www.dropbox.com/sh/aqfxflt9l0fe3zo/AACNjBdjRWa2xuAQmNjIn06ca?dl=0>.
During the course, you’ll complete a Technical Skills Test that will
evaluate your knowledge of the content you’ve learned.

Stage 3: Panel Interviews

Based on performance on the Aptitude Assessment and Technical Skills Test,
we invite a select group of applicants to interview with Andela. If
selected, you’ll receive an email one week prior inviting you to interview
with a panel of staff members and other Andela developers.


Stage 4: One Week Immersive Onsite

Successful applicants participate in a one-week immersive onsite led by our
senior developers. The one week is comprised of product development and
you’ll be expected to learn independently as well as work on a team to
deliver a final project.

Stage 5: Acceptance

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