They gave me a word document to submit to them for a programming test.
In the end they fobbed up some excuses and said "Your code has too much function nesting"
What nonsense! Nesting large blocks of code into small functions for either reuse or easy reading in short hand improves maintainability.
I agree with what they said about a lack of unit tests, but having experience under my belt, I would really like to challenge them to show me in the application code that they have it ;)
Another one of those interviews that is rigged cause they want to hire their own race in this case : Indian.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given a list of events and their timings, eg Learn python , 5 minutes
Introduction to Java , 30 minutes
Write an algorithm to squeeze as many possible courses into two 6 hour slota
Invited for an HR screening only to be immediately rejected for not having enough YOE. If this was a hard requirement why even schedule a call in the first place? A complete waste of time for both parties.
The interview consists of two rounds and takes about a month. It mainly asks about the understanding of the business and the ability to cooperate with others, and also includes some assessment of personal technical abilities
I was referred into Thoughtworks Bengaluru. After a basic HR screen, a PM grilled me on BA-style scenarios. After that, I prepped a two-day case study to roleplay a consultant.
