I applied online. I interviewed at Thoughtworks (Melbourne) in Dec 2017
Interview
Applied online. 10 minute phone call with recruiter. The coding assignment went for a few days, there was a choice of 3 and all of them gave me a chance to show off my algorithmic knowledge and object oriented stuff. Onsite interview was a pair programming task extending the the coding assignment. It was fairly quick and painless, and then we had a chat about what it was like to work there. Then there was a logic test and wonderlic test. The logic test was interesting, the wonderlic test not so much. Then there was a culture interview. The creative task was very interesting, haha. Then a 15 minute presentation on a topic of my choice to most of the office.
1. Recruiter screening with HR, pretty standard questions and went through what to expect. If you clear the screening, you will receive feedback that they will like to bring you the be interviewed for the technical interview
2. Pair programming with a senior developer. Brief introduction and straight to the take home assessment.
This was out of cycle as a candidate dropped the offer.
