Thoughtworks interview questions

I first spoke with ThoughtWorks at my University's career fair. I was intrigued by what I learned about the company and how the vibe they gave off at the career fair. I'm also a liberal arts major interested in going into the tech sector (and possibly grad school for a tech degree at some point). Because they hire all majors and matched my interest I submitted my resume to the recruiters at the career fair. I was contacted a couple of days later by phone and invited to attend a group presentation and assessment at their headquarters in Chicago. I attended the event with about a 1/2 dozen other candidates. After a presentation and tour we took several exams: math, logic, and flowcharts. I did quite poorly on the exams, specifically the programming/flowcharts portion. I'm assuming that is the main reason I was not invited back for an interview. Overall it was a good experience that introduced me to new possibilities for starting my career. Although they say that their process is unique I have since found that every aspect of it (including the steps I was not invited to) are very similar among a variety of tech and non-tech companies. This is not a criticism but an observation in hindsight. I was disappointed that ThoughtWorks took so long to contact me after the company visit to let me know I had not bee selected to move on in the process. This came after the recruiter told all candidates, unsolicited, that everyone would be contacted by a specific date regardless of outcome. This did not happen. There were also some other aspects of the process that made them seem disorganized and absent minded. If the opportunity came to apply again I would pursue it.

I should of realized something was wrong when I walked in and the receptionist was wearing a football jersey and baseball cap! The phone screen went really well but they omitted to tell me that if you come in for a face to face interview you need to take an IQ Test. The IQ test was ridiculous, and the interview process was sloppy, they did not have an interview schedule and it seemed liked they called whoever was available at that moment into the interview. No one was prepared, they were struggling to come up with questions, and the recruiting team seemed very green (they also had me talking the person who schedules interviews??!!). I started to wonder if they took any of their own assessment tests. The other thing that bothered me is that I had brought in samples of my work and they did not even have the decency to take a minute to look at it. I seriously got the impression that ThoughtWorks thinks they are the best and everything else is inferior. Long story short, I must have not answered some questions incorrectly and they gave me the impression they were no longer interested. Needless to say, as soon as I walked out I sent them a thank you but no thank you email. Regardless of the outcome don't you want your candidate to speak about what a great experience the interview process was and maybe refer someone from your network?
