Not on a project at the moment, so focusing on personal development, and helping out with various tasks. (Would prefer to be on a project.)
It varies, sometimes I am on a client, which involves me working with a team of other thoughtworkers or client staff to complete work for the project. We try to use test driven development as much as possible & all the ussual agile practices. When not on client I'm on 'the beach', which is a space to update your info/goals/admin, learn (self driven, or via courses / books), help the sales team or with a client pitch, help with interviews, some low priority beach projects & anything else that pops up.
When you are staffed on a project with a client, things are generally good. Though, over work is common as you almost have two roles. 1 - your client role, and 2 - your ThoughtWorks role. Sometimes managing 2 sets of calendars, and 2 sets of emails gets a bit stressful.
I am currently a billable graduate consultant working as a experience designer. My day to day responsibilities are to attend and schedule meetings to work with other team members or teams, ideate, develop HI-FI designs and prototypes, collaborate with devs to understand tech difficulty of the designs.
