We also include some screening questions in the application form. Since a CV alone doesn\u2019t always capture your interests, expectations, and future goals, we\u2019d appreciate your insights here!<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n \n How does the selection process work?\n
\n \n\n\n<\/g>\n<\/svg>\n <\/div>\n <\/button>\n\n \n
\n

To ensure top quality, we limit the number of participants, so our selection process helps us find the best candidates.<\/p>\n

The first step is a conversation with HR, where you can showcase your skills, motivation, and why you\u2019re a great fit for the Elixirr Digital Academy. This discussion also includes an assessment of your English speaking abilities.<\/p>\n

The next stage involves an interview with our tech experts and HR to gauge your tech skills, programming knowledge, and your demonstrated interest in the field of computer science. While we don\u2019t expect candidates to be experts, we\u2019re looking for individuals who have shown interest in programming and technology, either through tutorials, personal projects, or independent learning. This helps us make sure that you have the curiosity and foundation needed to thrive in our curriculum.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n \n\n\n<\/g>\n<\/svg>\n <\/div>\n <\/button>\n\n \n

\n \n I have applied but haven\u2019t heard back, what do I do?\n
\n \n\n\n<\/g>\n<\/svg>\n <\/div>\n <\/button>\n\n \n
