I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Jumia (Lagos) in June 2012
Interview
Average interview experience. Had a casual one-on-one twenty minute interview. The interviewer was friendly. The interviewer introduced himself and what the company does, then asked a couple of behavioral interview questions. No technical questions.
The second set of questions were about experiences listed on my resume, So I basically gave a walk-through of my resume with examples of how I succeeded in those roles.
After the interview, I was told I will be contacted within a week.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Jumia

I had three skype calls with managers of different areas (customer service, corporate, accounting), 45 minutes each: personal questions + business cases.
