      Social Media Specialist Interview

      3 Nov 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Boston, MA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA)

      Interview

      The interview process is LONG! You are first screened by a recruiter, then by the hiring manager, and then you go to the 4 “pillar” interviews where they’re interview you to see if you meet the 4 main Wayfair values. When I interviewed there were 5 candidates who were going through this whole process- which is a lot if you only have a 20% shot at the role. You do these 4 interviews in two sessions (2 and 2) & they are 45 minutes each with a 15 minute gap in between. You also meet with their internal recruiter before and after these 4 interviews. Then for me they narrowed it down to 2 candidates and I had one more interview with the direct hiring manager. After that they recruiter strung me along for 3 weeks saying the team still hadn’t decided, but ultimately they chose the other candidate. I have a feeling they strung me along as a back up in case the other candidate rejected the offer or bailed last minute, so keep that in mind!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They interview involves seeing if you match the 4 pillars of Wayfair, one of those interviews involves a live activity where you’re giving a large spreadsheet of raw data and the interviewee watches you for 20 minutes to see what you infer/recommend based on the data. Know how to make pivot tables and charts in excel - this will make that part of the interview easier.
