      Software Engineer Interview

      6 Feb 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Thoughtworks (New York, NY)

      Interview

      passed 5 interviews, no offer, just “wait for future opportunities” I went through a long and exhausting recruitment process with this company, including five interviews, technical and behavioral stages. At the end, I was told I had been approved. However, instead of receiving an offer, I was informed that they couldn’t move forward “at the moment” and that I should wait for future opportunities for up to one year, with the promise of possibly resuming the process later without repeating all steps. This feels extremely misleading and disrespectful to candidates’ time and effort. If there is no open position or budget to hire, that should be made clear before putting someone through five rounds of interviews. Calling this an “approval” without an actual offer is just a way to keep candidates on hold while the company takes zero responsibility. Candidates invest weeks of preparation, emotional energy, and time — and in the end receive nothing but vague promises. I strongly believe companies should only run full hiring processes when they are actually ready to hire. Anything else creates false expectations and shows a lack of respect for professionals. I would not recommend this recruitment process to anyone unless the company improves transparency and stops using candidates as a talent pool with no real commitment.
