The regular process can last up to two weeks, but they are always informing you of each stage, at the end of everything you will have a final meeting where they will give you feedback and if everything went well you will also receive the offer. There will be about 6 interviews where 3 will be technical, basically to know your level of knowledge, if you are a team player and if you can do pair programming. The other 2 will be cultural, where they basically see if you fit with the company culture, the final one will be with a senior administrator.
- The technical questions are not complicated, you have to solve a bug or implement a feature of a board, simulating a task board, as if it were a real job... They will also ask you questions about architecture, design patterns, good development practices, etc. And at the end you will do a pair programming session, where you will basically do the same thing as the first point but with someone else. All this distributed within the 3 interviews.

Anonymous Employee in Hyderābād
I interviewed at Thoughtworks (Hyderābād)
I joined TW as a Vapasi intern, Its a program designed for women to come back to industry after a break. Since I had a break, I was skeptical about the interview but the HR rep made me feel at place and assured me that it would not need me to dig into the depths of computer science. On the day of interview, I was given a small challenge and they asked me to code it using any language of my preference and share the screen while programming. I chose JS. They encouraged me to use search engines in case I was struggling with syntax. Overall, it was a very nice experience. In the initial round they had a casual discussion on what I worked on, which technologies, some elaboration and questions around that. I guess they were judging the basic capabilities. And in the coding round, IMHO they were judging the thought process, problem solving, prompt engineering, improvisation, etc. I loved how it was focused on the essential stuff needed for a developer rather than the rutted answers.
