Send in your application
The selection procedure starts the moment you send in your application. To apply, you will have to send us your up-to-date resume and a motivation letter explaining why you want to become a professional software developer.
Analytical test
We will invite you to take an online analytical test. The test will measure your reasoning and learning ability. It will allow us to objectively evaluate your analytical skill-set since quick analytical reasoning is a requirement for our track. It could be that you received the tests in your spam mailbox, so make sure to check that as well.
Phone screening
During an (optional) short phone call, we will get to know each other for the first time. Here you have the opportunity to ask us any questions you might already have.
Face-to-face interview
During this conversation, we get to know you even better. Most of all we are interested in your story, your motivation and your passion and how these make you the ideal candidate.
Group assessment
Software development is a real team sport, therefore we are looking for real team players. During the group assessment, we will challenge you for half a day. Convince us by your added value in the group, not by rivalry.
Talent-Pool
When you’ve successfully completed the selection process but we don’t have an employer for you in the upcoming class, you’ll be added to our talent pool. We’ll contact you as soon as new employers join a class.
Note that we handle the talent pool on a first-come, first-served basis.
Employer interview

Our partners
One of our partnering companies will become your new employer. When you apply you select the companies you would like to work for.
