Interview
Applied online, recieved an email from an internal recruiter within a day or so to set up an initial phone interview (Tuesday). Basic history, information about my experience, general questions. Recruiter expressed interest in setting up a second interview with the manager of the department at some point that week.
The recruiter sent an email asking for my schedule for the week, which I promptly sent, and I received no response all week so I followed up and attached my schedule for the following week (Friday).
No response all the following week until mid-afternoon on the following Friday (now 10 days later) when I received a call from the manager, unannounced and unscheduled. Blindsided, I took a few minutes to answer questions but was unable to fully commit to the time necessary to handle the remainder of the interview (as it was in the middle of my work day with zero notice). I apologized, and the interviewer promptly hung up without much response.
I received a mild 'rejection email' the following Monday. I am not surprised or disappointed by not hearing anything further. This was an absolutely dreadful process with zero communication or professionalism.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Berlin) in Jul 2023
Interview
I could not complete all the steps due to unprofessional interview process management. Two different HRs contacted me. After I shared my availability for the next interview, they sent me 2 different emails which were not related to my interview process. I asked for clarification about the process and send me the correct slot, but I did not get an answer for 4 days. In the end, HR call me and said all of a sudden they decided to hold the hiring process for this position. I spent 2 days on the case study and this is really unprofessional. I had concerns about the company because of having a low rating on Glassdoor but now understood why people are complaining that much. 1- Codility Challenged -- passed 2- HR screening call -- passed 3- Hiring Manager -- passed 4- Case Study -- delivered but the position on hold
