I applied online. I interviewed at Entelect (Johannesburg) in Apr 2026
Interview
You are 1st placed in a group of 4 where you will have to solve coding problems in either Java or C#. After this you will have a 1 on 1 interview where they will ask you basic questions such as tell us about yourself and why do you want to work here.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Entelect (Johannesburg) in Jan 2026
Interview
After I had applied, the recruiter reached out to me in about a week or two. They asked to set up a one-on-one for the interview. It was mainly about my interests, academic and work history, how I heard about the company, what made me apply for the company, and whether I would be willing to relocate. They also asked if I had any questions for them. Overall, the interview process went smoothly.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Entelect (Johannesburg) in Mar 2026
Interview
First you get a pre-screening call where you tell them a bit about yourself.
After a few weeks, you're invited to an Open day where they tell you about the company, do group tech challenges and then you have an 8-minute interview where they ask you questions.
Pros:
- The interview is fun. You meet new people and the interviewers try to break the ice as much as possible.
- They provide food and snacks.
Cons:
- The mob programming breaks the flow of a group. These are strangers, really, and now for a quarter of the time you cannot speak. It's hard to create a good group dynamic under those circumstances. Further, they don't make sure that everyone can code in the same language when put into a group.
- The interview/open day is very long (9 hrs), but an interviewer only speaks to you directly for 8 minutes.
- Depending on which interviewer you get, you get a drastically different experience. Vastly different questions are asked. I think if you did the effort to be there, they should give everyone the same effort back.
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are glad the Open Day felt fun and that the team made an effort to create a welcoming atmosphere.
Your points around the group coding dynamic, interview consistency, and the time investment versus direct interaction time are fair and well noted. These are exactly the kinds of insights that help us improve the experience, and we will be taking them into consideration. We appreciate the effort you put in and wish you all the best.
