      .NET Developer Interview

      20 Dec 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Wayfair

      Interview

      I had 3 interviews. phone, skype, and on-site. Phone interview was for an hour, questions like index, stored procedure on performance, sql injection, and one sql query using group by and write a program to reverse a string. second interview on skype was for an hour, was completely based on my resume. Technologies I have worked on like entity framework, wcf, difference between soap and rest. Binding on wcf. difference between php and c#. And a very simple program to code. Third interview was on-site which was for 3 hours. First two hour was all coding on white board. Questions are 1. Given array {-5, 6, 7, 8, -6, -4} arrange the array so that negative number on left side and positive number on right side, but do not sort. So, output is {-5, -6, -4, 6, 7, 8} 2. Given a vector {{'one', 'two', 'three'}, {'four', 'five'}, {'six', 'seven'} print: {'one', 'four', 'six'}, {'one', 'five', 'seven'}..so on...basically all cartesian products. 3. Given the input like [ ]{( )}, check if the parenthese is balanced or no. Last one hour interview was with director he asked some maths/computer question like finding a missing number. And other high level design questions, which did not have any right/wrong answers. Just to understand my knowledge. Overall it was a good experience. I did not get the job but the all the interviewers were nice. I was expecting a lot of sql questions and writing queries, since the position was based on sql. But they did not ask even one sql question.

      .NET Developer Interview

      5 Sept 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Boston, MA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Aug 2014

      Interview

      Got contacted by HR recruiter from LinkedIn, scheduled first phone screen with HR, and then another from a senior engineer. A few days later, got the onsite interview, nice work environment, opening work space. I liked it. Questions as below: 1st Round: 1. Your most recent project, description and what you did, I recommend you prepare every single detail of your project. 2. This is a very database heavy position, so refresh your database fundamentals, like difference between inner join and outer join. You will be design a database with the example from the interviewers. 3. How do you understand MVC? Pros and Cons? 4. What is the process when you type in wayfair.com? 5. Given a website,which is frequently visited by people around the world, causes system failure due to the heavy traffic, how do you solve it? I said use some cache technology and add load balancing device. But I don't know what exactly the cache tech will be. 2nd Round: 60 mins non-stop talk . 1. Your experience. 2. Multi-thread programming used in SQL. 1 million users try to visit wayfair.com, how can you fulfill their requests in time? Describe it. 3. Familiar with XML? XSD? Describe it. 3rd Round: Programming tests: 1. Bank Check Problem(Convert numeric values into String representation) 2. Recursion problem: that I did not finish it as i may fail at certain case, but I have no time left. Suggestion: Spit out your thoughts to earn your credits if you cannot complete it ontime.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They focused on whether you have a better understanding of certain fields of knowledge rather than your potential or desire to learn. But at least I know where I needs to be improved. In a nutshell, positive experience. If you can answer all questions above, you will nail it.
