I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair in Oct 2016
Interview
I had two interviews. The first was a phone screen with a recruiter. The second was with someone in the department for which I had applied. The questions were pretty straightforward and I thought I had done quite well. The first phone screen was very short and basic. The second was around 30-40 minutes and asked mostly behavioral questions with a couple of technical questions. Nothing too out of the normal or difficult.

Question 1
Time you worked in a team?
What are some past data science projects you have worked on?
Had a recruiter screening, behavioral interview with a hiring manager from the team, and case interview with a more technical manager. Case was medium difficulty, I struggled but ended up getting the offer.
I applied online. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Jan 2026
Interview
Pretty easy. Had a hacker rank and then a case interview in google sheets. Two more behavioral after that. Huge AI push in the company so if you yap about that, you should be set.
Not difficult at all, just do a case and a series of behavioral - you just have to understand that they care about cross functional leadership. Very flat organization - you will be interviewed by random senior managers who don't care that much if you get hired or not
