My most recent learning experience

As widely known and believed that the road to success is crooked,and for someone to succeed one has to be rugged and resilient to sail through the stormy weather. My most recent learning experience was during the first and second stage of Andela recruitment process.

Andela, a revered software development company which over the years has grown with regards to the tediousness of its recruitment process. To scale through the first stage, extensive reading has to be done. Its an exam that test a particular candidate all round with regards to software development. As I was new to this field and , I took it for granted which of course I failed. After so many trials, I finally decided to be serious and give it my best shot, I consulted a lot of books, surf the internet for materials that would consolidate and strengthen my reading. You can easily guess what later happened, I scaled through!!!.

Now to the second stage, the Interview. With the lesson that I learnt from the first stage I was able to prepare very well for this, but unfortunately, You know what they say “ Reality is real”. I froze when asked questions and could not express myself well enough. So I was faced with that disappointment, but as a person who as crossed so many hurdles in life, I qualified for another interview which I passed.

Key lesson. Preparation and resilience is key to success.
