      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      The interview process was phenomenal. I got a request for an initial phone screen two days after I sent in my application online (I applied on a Saturday, they got back to me on Monday). The technical recruiter was extremely friendly and kept me updated through the entire process. After the phone screen, I received a coding challenge. Upon completion, I was invited for a technical interview with one of their software engineers. That was about an hour. After that, I had a cultural interview with the manager of the program a few days later. Again, an hour. Between each of these interviews, the technical recruiter kept me informed and up to date, checking in with me to see how I felt about each step. Not even a week after the cultural interview, I received an offer. (All of the interviews were conducted over the phone. The technical interview was on the phone and through coderpad.)

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      Technical Recruiter: Basic questions (how did you get into tech, tell me about your experience, what are you looking for, etc)
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Technical Interview: Balanced Brackets, looked at some PHP code (which I had never worked with), random selection of an array

      Question 3

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Wayfair in Oct 2018

      Interview

      Awesome, quick, interview process that really gave me a feel for the program. HR Screen -> Coding Challenge -> Phone Technical Interview -> Behavioral Interview -> Offer Coding challenge consisted of some simple array manipulation questions, some SQL, and some stuff relating to class inheritance/abstraction. Technical interview was over the phone with an engineer, where we simply made some additions to my coding challenge code. The behavioral interview went well and I really got a feel for the company culture as well as what I would be able to expect for the program. Overall, it was a great experience and I thought that I vibed really well with everyone I talked to at the company. Received a phone call with an offer about a week after the behavioral interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Some simple SQL statements (i.e. printing specific values from a table)
