There was a business case plus many rounds of phone/video interviews. They wouldn’t tell me the seniority of the position I was applying to which was odd. The case itself was extremely easy.
I applied online. I interviewed at Wayfair in Sep 2021
Interview
First talked to a hiring manager, and was asked some behavioral questions.
The second round is a case study, which is not hard but has some tricky questions that I didn't really follow. But the interviewer in the second round definitely makes me more pressured because of her personality...
