Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un'altra fonte. La procedura ha richiesto 6 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Thoughtworks (Chicago, IL) nel mese di gen 2009
Colloquio
In my observation.....Very one sided interview process. They do not have a sales or marketing culture. They kind of think--since we are ThoughtWorkers we are the best. Clients do not know that and have seen a lot. Hand-off from sales to delivery is poor and they seem to have problems with long term account management and relationship building. Technology focused culture that is slowly getting commoditized by competition-- although they do do great work. Most of their sales come in off the phone or through techies, so they need to build a true sales culture, but doubt they can change the culture and their view of sales for that. They make people take several tests, skills, logic, personality, strenghts. Big disappointment was that the candidate did not get to qualify them--very one sided and odd. The high amount of revenue spent staff augmentation shows that sales is an issue.

Colloquio
Multiple stages. It will take at least 4 interviews. You meet people from different roles in the organization that will each explore a different facet of what you bring to the company. It is a very democratic process, and everyone's out put from the interview is considered.

Colloquio
They have a structured process and wanted to begin with a Wonderlic Cognitive Assessment test - 50 questions in 12 minutes - which they skipped on this occasion.
They friendly and are unabashed about having their own unique culture.
Followed by Interview by National Sales Manager.
They typically also have group interviews and they all get a vote - if you survive triabal elimination then you get to move upwards to interviews with real decision-makers.
