Please state the job location and include the keywords REMOTE, INTERNS and/or VISA when the corresponding sort of candidate is welcome. When remote work is not an option, include ONSITE.

Please only post if you personally are part of the hiring company—no recruiting firms or job boards. Only one post per month, please. If it isn't a household name, explain what your company does.

Commenters: please don't reply to job posts to complain about something. It's off topic here.

Readers: please only email submitters if you personally are interested in the job—no recruiters or sales calls.

The ordering for interview process seems to be wrong, or is it an unordered list?

Also, I'd like to know what "Social Economic Justice Round" is. Is it a round where you preferably hire people belonging to socially and economically backward classes, and only hire otherwise if no people from aforementioned categories are available?

The ordering is an accurate picture of the procedure. Usually the Culture and Leadership rounds are merged.

The Social Economic Justice round is around how well aware is the individual of injustices taking place and what are their opinions. ThoughtWorkers are highly opinionated people, especially politically. This round helps us gauge the level of awareness the individual has.

Many people in past have voiced their hesitation in this round, but almost all are quite impressed at the end of it.
