Thoughtworks interview questions

ThoughtWorks' recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn, saying I was a good fit for a role they were hiring for. I shared my resume and had an initial interview with one recruiter, who then invited me to a second round involving a case study. Although the role was based in Sydney, none of the interviewers were from there; they were all in Singapore. I found the interviews quite basic, and they didn't seem to understand my questions. Their knowledge of the current UX process also didn't meet my expectations. I was ultimately rejected, which made sense given that the seniority level of the interviewers didn't align with my experience. Overall, I was very disappointed with the experience, especially since no one from Australia contacted me. It didn't feel like a proper hiring process for a Sydney-based role, as I asked questions about local expectations and was told they didn't know and that things should be different in Australia.

Submitted my application and resume through the standard process. The interview was scheduled about a week in advance, so it seemed like a genuine opening. However, one day before the scheduled interview, I was rejected on the grounds that the role “wasn’t a good fit,” even though I had checked my resume against an ATS system beforehand and found a 70% match with the job description. This made the whole process feel inconsistent with the criteria they publicly stated, and honestly it came across as a possible ghost job — posted without real intent to hire, since cancelling one day before an interview scheduled a week ahead is a huge red flag.
