I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Austin, TX) in Jan 2022
Interview
It starts off with recruiter screening, followed by a
coding assessment and round of interview with
hiring manager. The final virtual onsite will be 5 interviews.
The interview process is flawed to certain extent that are unable to identify an unsuitable candidate during the initial rounds. My final rounds of interview was very straight forward but app design where the interviewer wanted my design to relate more with Java. I am from js eco system.
Overall they could have saved everybody's time by not qualifying me to the final round which was 4 hours. Kudos to the recruiter who constantly kept my updated.
