I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Thoughtworks (Chicago, IL)
Interview
After an initial phone call to assess my interest, there was a technical phone interview. This was like any other technical interview. Data structure questions, algorithm questions etc.
The in-office interview started with written tests. The logic test was very interesting. I thought the personality test was a little useless (until months later when I saw my results and compared it to my behavior).
The non-technical interview focused on current affairs and my volunteer work. I found out why later (the company has a social calling beyond just being profitable).
The technical interview was awesome! I got to learn during the interview and one of the interviewers had written books! That was a bit intimidating on the surface, but the interactions were very friendly and informal. It felt like things flowed smoothly.
The interview consists of two rounds and takes about a month. It mainly asks about the understanding of the business and the ability to cooperate with others, and also includes some assessment of personal technical abilities
I was referred into Thoughtworks Bengaluru. After a basic HR screen, a PM grilled me on BA-style scenarios. After that, I prepped a two-day case study to roleplay a consultant.
Thought provoking, very congenial. learnt a lot during the interview. There were a coding round followed by an in-person additional part of the code. This was followed by 2 interview panels, 1 HR round and 1 leadership round. The
