I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Berlin) in Apr 2021
Interview
It was a 4-5 steps process. First meet and greet with the HR, then you receive an assignment which should not take more than 3-4 days to solve. After that there is live coding and system design interview. A couple of cultural fit interviews and finally you meet the team.
