      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Apr 2022

      Interview

      1) Interview with Hiring Manager 2) Phone Interview 3) Virtual Onsite Interview with hiring manager was positive. It was a good discussion around the work I have done and behavioral questions. Phone Interview was code Live but similar to Karat interview but you don't get a second chance. there were 4 questions on System design after introduction. They were fast round kind of questions where you just provide your immediate though process which was not a good way to do system design. Interviewer didn't prompt that he is expecting more detail answer but just repeating what I have said. There was a coding question which needs to be finished in 25 mins mostly from Leetcode -Medium level question. Got a feedback after declining the offer that interviewer was expecting more detailed answer on System design question.
