I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair in Nov 2020

Question 1
Describe a time when you collaborated with others.
I applied through university. I interviewed at Wayfair
Interview
The interview process was very smooth. Spoke with a Senior Software Engineer who was very kind and casual. Did a screen-sharing programming test that was very OOP-based. I could easily ask questions and the member was very helpful. Asked me about performance optimization after I completed the task.
The process took 3 weeks with one online assessment, two technical interviews and one behavioral interview. Most are related to algorithms and object oriented design but there is a bit of system design involved in the third round.
