I applied online. I interviewed at Thoughtworks (Barcelone) in May 2017
Interview
First i had a small talk via skype and then a P3/Values Conversation. Since i passed this stage i went to their offices in Barcelona for the interview. The office interview day was diveded in three parts:
1. Wonderlic and logical tests
2. Pairing Exercise Interview
3. Presentation
Generally, the environment was really helpful and make me feel comfortable. But i had a bad experience in my Pairing Exercise Interview, one of the interviewer made fun of my code's mistakes in front of me without shaming and her comment about not having an mac laptop was very derogatory. Her whole attitude to me was unprofessional and rude. The woman did not know how to behave civilized.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
In which way can you help with nowadays bad situation of european crisis?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Thoughtworks (Barcelone) in Apr 2017
Interview
Worst interview experience ever. They moved 6 times my first interview, with no reason. In particular, 2 times with no advise, and one time I waited all day long for the recruiter availability, receiving several emails of lies and no apologies. At the end, I was not able to continue with the second interview cause "I have no knowledge about Agile methodologies". It was not written in the job offer, and when she asked during the interview if I had knowledge about it, I answered no and she said that "it wasn't a problem".
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions about social justice, previous studies and experiences and why I want to move to Barcelona.
Initially received an email asking for certain details and stating that I would be sent a coding question. I was required to solve the question applying OO design principles.
Then in the next email the recruiter said I would be recontacted in a month as some other colleague was in-charge of the hiring opportunities.
Middle of next month and no contact was made. Neither was a reply provided to a follow up email.
Quite bizarre and unprofessional.
