I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Cambridge, MA) in Oct 2015
Interview
After submitting my resume, I was invited for an interview on my college campus. The interviewer was really nice, but I wasn't selected to move forward with the process. He did mention his contact information was available on a business card outside the interviewing room; that was maybe a sign that he would like to receive a thank you email (which I did not do because I was not interested in the position anymore).

Question 1
He asked me to go over the experiences on my resume, then some behavioral questions, and finally some case questions. He asked me to answer 3 simple mathematical questions about a hypothetical case of a bar stool being announced through Google Ads. After explaining how the bidding system works at Google Ads (the impact of the exposure and number of clicks on costs) and how much revenue they would receive from a number of clicks, the questions that followed would be about changing one of these variables and solving for another.
Pretty nice person. Asked questions and helped through anything I didn’t understand, though the questions were easy. Technical questions could not have been easier and the behavioral is pretty simple to see through or master

Question 1
How would you handle a superior speaking down to you
standard 3 parts: 1) OA on sql 2) case with cross teams 3) team match with HM. The team match takes longer than expected. HR is slow but when they reach you. They are very transparent and clear.
The interview process started with an initial phone screening with recruiter (included case study questions), then a behavioral interview, followed by a live case study. Overall experience was good, and the difficult was average.
