Entrevista
After applying online to the Associate Consultant program as a developer, I was contacted to attend an online info-session on the ThoughtWorks Associate Consultant program. Everyone who attended the session was given the option to continue in the hiring process by completing a survey.
If you completed the survey, you were emailed a questionnaire and two problems. You had to complete their lengthy questionnaire and one of the two problems. After emailing my solution to my recruiter, I was invited to have a 1:1 phone interview. The phone interview went well and I was invited to fly out to Chicago to interview with their team in person.
The in-person interviews lasted two days! The first day included a tour of the office, meeting people, taking a few logic tests, and doing a group activity with a few other people also interviewing for the position. The second day consisted of three interviews, each with two different people. These interviews were in a random order of cultural interview, technical interview, and paired programming interview.
The whole process took about 3 weeks.

2. Questionnaire

3. Coding Exercise
- simple coding exercise in Java (get two options to select from)
4. Video Interview
- video call interview with recruiter, < 30 min
Only made it to round 4 (video interview). I was very interested in the AC program and thought the company was great. But through the recruiting process, had a negative perception of the company's operations and HR team. They were quite unorganized in that they did not do what they promised, in the timeline they described. For example, I had to reach out for them to send me the questionnaire, twice. They also cut off communication for 6 weeks after the video interview despite saying they had a 1 week turnaround and me having sent them two followup emails. Overall, an unorganized and unprofessional process.
