Summary
I interviewed at Wayfair in February 2024 for an SSE role, completing 3 out of 4 rounds before news of company-wide layoffs emerged, leaving my application status uncertain.
Full Experience
I interviewed at Wayfair in February 2024. There were a total of 4 rounds planned, and I completed 3 of them.
Round 1 was an online coding round, which included 2 Algorithm/Data Structure questions and 1 SQL query question.
Round 2 was a 1:1 Algorithm/Data Structure round, where I was given 1 easy and 1 medium level question. I also had to write test cases to prove my code.
Round 3 was a System Design round where I was asked to design a Parking Lot system, including its API endpoints, class design, and database design.
After Round 3, I learned that there had been massive layoffs at Wayfair the previous week, so I am unsure if I will receive a follow-up call.
