J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Thoughtworks en mars 2017

Interviewers do not seem to be knowing anything but Agile, which is okay. Probing is a skill, which the interviewer clearly lacked. It was surprising to be interviewed for a manager position by a manager, who doesnot understand basics like what project engineering is and what RPN is in the context of risk management. It would be great to screen candidate's profile well before wasting their time. It is not a good practice to talk negative about somebody's current company, in the pretext of passing feedback, just because there are different established ways of project management other than Agile. It was not a structured interview, other than trying to corner candidate with series of same question"As a customer, I will not listen to you. What would you do".

Decent experience, case helps to demonstrate the experience. Takes holistic perspective, they do care about you as a person rather than just skills and experience. Overall a rich conversation with some great interview panel

Interview had around 4 rounds, although the scheduling system and documents do not tally. 1) recruiter screening 2) technical screening 3) office interview (but its online)/case study 4) leadership and culture interview
Overall HR was helpful and prompt, however i come to realise its only if they are interested in you. Responses provided with 1-2 business days. However I was ghosted since my laat interview and never heard back, not very well done and typical asian style.
Sessions went well, however for case study interview, interviewer spent a long time sharing his journey and asking alot of background questions. During the case study presentation, he cut me off while i was presenting asking to cover 1-2 slides and I had to rush through midway, wasn't tracking the time but im sure i wasnt given the full 30mins to share. This was also the feedback given to me that i didnt present the content in detail later on. Throughout the session, it seemed like he was finding a specific type of PM that was like him and nothing else. I did not think that my presentation was poorly done, the deck I had spent significant effort in putting together.
Ask for feedback towards the end of the interview, and he said it was thorough and had great visual elements (journey, future experience) but he also said later portions were rushed (which was by his own design as he asked me to rush through due to time). Did not hear from anyone, even after i reached out to HR. Ghosted.

Initial screening interview, followed by a case study around a client scenario for which I had to prepare for a couple of days. I recommend you proactively ask what they are looking to test with the case study. Lastly, leadership interview.
