      Site Merchandising Analyst Interview

      11 Jan 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Boston, MA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Dec 2017

      Interview

      I submitted an application online and heard back the next day from a recruiter to schedule a phone interview the following week. The interview went well-- the recruiter asked for a two minute elevator pitch for why I was a good candidate, and details about my current role. The most challenging part of the interview was the case study. The math was simple (if you could double traffic by reducing the cost of an item 20%, should you do it? Current price per unit = $1000, Conversion rate 1% before and after discount, 1000 people coming to the site currently) but it was challenging not having brushed up on key eCommerce concepts. You will be asked to walk through the math for how you arrived at your answer. The follow up question was about profit margins-- review beforehand! The next day I was invited to come into the office for an in-person interview.
