I first had an phone interview with a business case and fit questions and then had an in-person interview at the office with a combination of a business case, fit questions, and a case involving an Excel exercise.
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
