Quality Assurance Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
The interview was completely remote, with everything handled over the phone or Google Meets.
Everyone I spoke with was friendly, knowledgeable, and encouraging. I particularly appreciated my recruiter. She was on top of everything, maintaining great contact with me throughout the process. They set expectations regarding follow-ups and next steps. If a time frame was going to take longer than initially stated, she would send an email letting me know of the updated time frame.
The night prior to my final "panel interview," my recruiter set up some time to speak with me to help me prep for the interview.
Overall, I feel that Wayfair really wants its candidates to succeed. I never felt uncomfortable or unprepared.
Questions
There were only a few of the "tell me a time when..." sort of questions. I could tell the interviewer hated asking them as much as I hated being asked them.
Most of my interview process was a conversation. They were getting to know my background while seeing if it would be a good fit for both parties.

Wayfair Work Experiences
- 4.0Great company, gone corporateQuality Assurance • Current EmployeeApril 4, 2020Pros: Wayfair has an amazing culture for this size company, and its lower-grade positions pay above the industry average. It has changed to be more data-driven. Everyone makes a difference, and it has learned from past mistakes.Cons: The fun startup is mostly gone, replaced by corporate politics. They make an effort to still be fun, but it feels like the decision-makers aren’t part of that conversation. Data drives decisions well, but politics get in the way at higher levels. I hear pay is not so great the higher you go.
