The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Apr 2012
Interview
There was a phone interview with HR with mostly behavioral questions. I was then invited for panel interviews, first behavioral and then technical. The technical questions were mostly algorithmic and SQL based, so be sure to review your SQL syntaxes and able to answer questions in one SQL statement (i.e. looping, joins, unions, variable setting, temporary table creation, sorting, ordering).
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.
