Entretien
I had a wonderful interview process at Wayfair. Before the interview, i read all the reviews below and was expecting the worse. However, it was quite amazing, probably the best interview experience I've ever had!
First, i had a Skype interview with a Data Scientist who asked about my experience and gave me a simple business case. Then i got a response back within a week from Wayfair. I flew to Boston for an on-site interview. I had a three hour interview with three professionals on the Data Science team: two data scientists and one data engineer.
The first two interviews with the scientists involved a business case that the professionals were currently working on and i was asked my thoughts on how i would approach the case: models i would use, metrics i would use, etc. They use whiteboards, which i love! The cases weren't too difficult and very engaging. The last interview with the Data Engineer involved working through a Python challenge
The following week after the onsite interview, i received a phone call with an offer. Between receiving and accepting the offer, i received personal emails from a VP and the CEO about what the company is doing and encouraged me to consider joining their Data Science. I replied to the email thinking they were just sending something generic but they replied back with feedback, that really impressed me. I was planning to accept but that was an added bonus.
I don't know about the interview experience at Wayfair before mine, but they either improved the experience significantly or something went wrong with the others who reviewed before me.

Technical Interview on SQL and Python. Makes you program a machine learning model and write intermediate SQL commands. Overall, not too difficult, and it takes roughly 75 minutes. I would suggest praticing on Hackerrank

Very average interview where the questions were ambiguous. It was very ambiguity. And not clear on the requirement. So in short not difficult. Hard to say if anyone should interview for this company
