I´m a ThoughtWorker

I am officially a ThoughtWorker now! I was in London (as you might´ve noticed from previous posts) and I did a full-day interview with them for a developer job in Thoughtworks UK.

Working with ThoughtWorks was a dream of mine ever since I learnt about the company philosophy. I really dig agile development and I just love learning new stuff. I am sure this is a bold move and one that I´m not only ready to take, but actually anxious.

Several of my friends already know about it and are holding their breath to blog about it! Ok, guys, you´re good to go.

The reason you´re good to go is that my current employers (Perlink Consulting) were AWESOME! They were very happy for me and were very supportive. I didn´t expect any less of them. I had a GREAT time here and I would surely recomend working here for anyone in Rio de Janeiro (and probably São Paulo in a very near future). If I´m going to Thoughtworks today, I owe it to them.

I am very excited about working in ThoughtWorks. I have the perspective of LEARNING a lot in the near future. I´m very excited about the Immersion training, about working in a very agile environment, about living in London, ... Yes, you got that right! I am excited on everything!

I´ll be leaving for London in early February with my wife. She´s also very excited on moving to the UK. I am sure we´ll both learn a lot about work and life. I couldn´t endure all the life-changing without her and all the love and care she devotes me! She is my supporting pillar!

Last but not least, I´d like to thank all my friends and family who were all cheering for me and got REALLY happy for me after the news. You know who you are and I love you all!

Well...TW UK... Here I come!

Bernardo,

Congratulations!  The job couldn't have gone to a more competent and eager developer.  I expect to see big things from you!  Best of luck in London.
