New Job – ThoughtWorks

November 18th, 2006

I think it is now safe to post this on my blog: for the last several months I have been going through the selection process for a position at “ThoughtWorks”:http://www.thoughtwork.ca. This past Wednesday, they offered me a position as an application developer and I accepted. The odd thing is that they don’t want me to start until February. This is because they want to send me to ThoughtWorks University and the next session doesn’t start until then.

I think this will be an excellent opportunity and it will definitely prove to be an amazing learning opportunity. I think the thing I am looking forward to the most is working with a team of smart, dedicated developers who are able to create and deliver software to the client. I have spent too much time learning how things shouldn’t be done; it will be nice to finally see how to do things right.

    Hey Chris,

    I’ll be heading to TWU too in February 2007. Will see you there!

    Cheers,
    Nick.

    I just got a call saying TWU got cancelled. Did you get the same call?

    I haven’t yet, maybe tomorrow.

    That would be a big disappointment if it has been canceled. I was looking forward to TWU and visiting India. Although, I was reading another ThoughtWorkers blog today in which he mentioned that his teaching contract in India had been canceled. He was suppose to be moving to India for 6 months and found out just yesterday that it had been canceled. The evidence is mounting that this is definitely the case.
