I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Thoughtworks
Interview
There were a few stages I went through - the first being a skype call with HR to talk about my academic life, interests etc. After passing that stage, I was sent a problem and was asked to code the solution. Upon doing that and passing that stage, another set of two skype calls followed - a technical one with two software developers in which they ask about your technical expertise and ask you questions on how you would deal with certain scenarios. The second one was with two other employees (not necessarily developers) to talk about the company's culture, their views, my views etc. Upon passing that, I had an in person interview at their office in Barcelona, this comprised of a logic test, a presentation (prepared beforehand) and a pair programming exercise looking over the code you submitted.
Sadly I didn't get an offer, they felt that I needed to show more confidence when coding (as seen from the pair programming interview). However the feedback i received was great, very details and the HR co-ordinator even arranged a skype call to go over what she had said in the feedback email. I thought this was nice considering most times you get a generic 'no' email in other companies. I would 100% recommend!

I applied online. I interviewed at Thoughtworks (Barcelona) 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.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Thoughtworks (Barcelona) 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".
