Our Recruitment Process
Step 2
Shortlisted candidates are then contracted to take a computer based test. We will be testing the existing programming skills.
Step 3
Next is a face-to-face interview at our site. This interview can also be done online depending on the current circumstances.
Step 4
Once candidates prove themselves capable of fitting into the AmaliTech training programme, an offer is made and candidates are enrolled into our programme.
We recommend that every candidate should visit https://amalitech.org/test-instructions/ in order to complete our sample online assessment. This will give candidates a fair idea of the nature of our assessments, measure their performance and study the relevant topics to ensure they are well prepared for the actual online and onsite assessments should they get shortlisted.

Yes, the training not only includes the technical skills but general skills as well which are required to function efficiently in geographically distributed, multicultural and international teams (e. g. leading a team, project management skills). If you already have an advanced degree, it does not replace the training but is advantageous in your career advancement.
Ideally, it requires your full time commitment. But if you have confidence in your existing skill set and you can balance the training alongside your existing workload, you are most welcome to try. The course design is largely self paced, so you decide your own pace. But the help of our trainers would only be available during working hours, and failure to follow the pace required to maintain your standing would result in termination of your enrollment.
