Enosis Solutions started as an offshore software engineering and consultancy company in 2003. The company’s primary services comprise desktop, mobile and website applications. Mobile and web app developers, software quality assurance (QA) and testing engineers account for most employees at Enosis.
The company has partnered with IT groups in Canada, Europe and the U.S.A., which allowed Enosis to serve clients in different industries. More than 10,000 experts from Fortune 500 companies use the company’s Custom Business Intelligence tool, while the Medical Practice Management Software has helped clients in the healthcare field.
You can apply online, through an employee referral or campus job fairs. Most applicants for software engineering roles described Enosis’ pre-employment written test as relatively easy. The exam contains basic algorithm, programming and testing questions. The company will conduct an interview after you pass the written and coding tests.
Enosis can hire an applicant after a few days or four weeks on average. Most of the interview questions will focus on technical concepts including vector-tree related problems, aligning strings in a certain direction (eg right to left), and array-based topics.
Enosis encourages fresh graduates to apply as a software QA engineer or software engineer. You should have a bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science or engineering to be considered for the role. Some of the must-have skills are the following: knowledge on C/C++, C#, Java, PHP, Python, SQL, Microsoft Visual Studio, Eclipse and Netbeans.
Business development associates are another entry-level role, but graduates should be willing to work at night. The company prefers to hire individuals with experience in telemarketing. Roles with mid-level experience are senior software engineers, senior mobile application developers and senior .NET developers who should have at least two years of experience in the relevant field.
A software QA engineer can advance in their career by taking on a senior role in the same position, which will require them to have at least three years experience. Project leads and software development leads should have at least four years of experience. IT certification can increase your chances of being hired either for an entry-level or senior position.
A software engineer at Enosis earns BDT 45,000 per month on average. The monthly average pay for senior software engineers ranges from BDT 75,000 to BDT 89,000. Employment benefits include two festival bonuses that are equal to a monthly salary, subsidies on lunch and snacks and annual appraisals.
Enosis follows a ‘180-degree/360-degree appraisal method’ based on feedback from colleagues, managers, subordinates and superiors. Employees are also eligible for paid time off and sick leave.
Problem solvers will like the work environment at the company. The tasks routinely demand timely solutions for clients based on the experience of some employees. Most people are satisfied with their company’s work-life balance because of flexible schedules, although there’s room for improvement in the company’s management style.
Learning opportunities are plenty since Enosis expects employees to meet the challenges for their respective roles, as part of the 4 Es for career development (ie empowering, enabling, energising and engaging). The company also fosters a sense of camaraderie by asking senior employees to guide new hires and help them to adjust quickly.
Enosis competes with Brain Station, Datasoft, Kazi IT Center, Kaz Software, Nascenia IT and TigerIT.
The company provides employees with a clear path to career advancement through a unique appraisal method. You should be willing to compromise your sleep schedule if available jobs are listed for the night shift. The irregular hours may be necessary to have an overlap with clients in western countries.
You might still enjoy working at Enosis despite the unconventional work schedule. Most employees help each other. The friendly work environment is one reason behind a steady retention rate as some individuals have worked for more than three years at the company.
