It seemed like a joke when Jason Njoku, CEO of iROKOtv said that he was going to do it. Now the second millionaire has emerged from the coding challenge. All you had to do was to get the highest score in a simple coding test. This automatically guaranteed you a job also, that is, if you want to work with iROKOtv.
Two sharp people have emerged – Oluwasayo Oladeji and Adedayo Oluokun.
Meet the winner in May 2015 – Oluwasayo Oladeji. He came first out of about 200 people that took the test with a score of 324/400. Only 96 met the minimum pass mark (100/400 or 25%)
For the month of June, it was the turn of Adedayo Oluokun. She aced the test 100% by scoring 400/400. This time, 105 people take the test.
Interestingly, both winners graduated from Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU). Hmm… there must be something brewing in that school.
We must commend iROKOtv and Jason Njoku for this initiative. Surely it can be rewarding to be a developer in Nigeria. So for those out there, iROKOtv is still hiring…..Reach out to them and take the test.
