Business Analyst interview - they ask you to redesign a kitchen and give you two ThoughtWorks employees to act as your clients. They want you to think about the "problem" of redesigning a kitchen in a very analytical, logical, and business-like way, not at all as a designer. This was unexpected to me because, as mentioned above, I didn't understand until my values interview (which was after my business analyst interview) that about 80% of the role would be business analyst, not design. Also, I thought as my background is in design, I didn't think it would necessarily be bad to bring some design thinking in and I thought the interviewers would be more understanding of that than they were. Work with your recruiter to understand how they are going to expect you to balance business and design in this role so that you can prepare to show the right skills in your interviews. They also give a logic assessment, which was difficult for me as a designer, but overall not too bad - I answered about 7 of the 11 questions. The Wonderlic text (IQ test) wasn't too bad - I was nervous and only got through about 35 of 50 questions, but an average score is a 22, so I think I scored well above average. For these tests, my advice is to prepare a bit in the week or so leading up (you can find sample questions from both tests online) just so you know what to expect.
