I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in May 2016
Interview
The process consisted of three parts: an informational phone interview, a 24 hour coding project, and a technical interview with live coding. For the coding project, it had been a while since I had used java, but they were very nice about it and offered to extend the deadline over the weekend. In the end it was a manageable project so I did not need the extension, but it shows how accommodating Wayfair was during the process.

Question 1
Most, (maybe all?) questions I got were array manipulation (sort, output certain combinations, analyze mathamatically), so I would strongly recommend brushing up on that.
passed initial screening, was given a game home hackerrank interview assessment that was similar to a leetcode mediums. very specific set of problem I was not able to answer. I was then ghosted by the company without a formal rejection.
