I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Aug 2019
Interview
The interview process was straight forward. It consisted of HR phone screen, Phone screen with a manager from the team, and In-person interview. The in-person interview was very unprofessional. One of my interviewers arrived more than 10 minutes late and left ten minutes early. Even after I filed an expense report and haven’t received my expenses back yet and it’s been over two weeks! It would be nice if they treated their candidates with respect.
