I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Thoughtworks (Manchester, England)
Interview
I applied online and received a call within two weeks from applying. After the call I had to do a coding test. Once completed I had to take a Predictive Index test online. After that they told me that they want to bring me into the office.
The interview at the office was based on an aptitude and logical test, a coding test doing pair programming, a social impact interview and a 5 minutes presentation about something I was passionate about.
The day went through smoothly mostly because the amazing people that interviewed me. All of them where very kind and helpful.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The most difficult questions for me were the ones related with my views on social and economic justice issues. They really care about bringing people in that question the status quo and have their own opinions on different topics even if these topics can be controversial.
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.
