I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Sep 2018
Interview
(interviewed as a junior level SWE)
The real problem is that no one offered me any food or a break to get lunch. I had to go catch a flight right after. So no food between 8 AM (breakfast) and 4:30 PM. Weak. I was upset/sad about this lol.
Everyone was quite nice! Office in Boston seems pretty nice. Fair interview.
First interviewers for the onsite were 20 minutes late.

Question 1
No leetcode. My interviews assessed me in knowledge of SQL (make sure you've prepped writing raw sequel with lots of joins!), system design, OOP, and debugging. Very practical stuff, which I appreciate.
passed initial screening, was given a game home hackerrank interview assessment that was similar to a leetcode mediums. very specific set of problem I was not able to answer. I was then ghosted by the company without a formal rejection.
