That's Tuck pointing. A mix that matches the bricks is used for the joints to make them flush, then a housing is cut into the joints. A lime putty mix is used to do the white joints with special tools called tuck jointers. They are trimmed up with straight edges and a Frenchman.
It's not an easy job.
