Process

The interview process for Wayfair was streamlined and effective.

I was sent a coding challenge to complete independently, then I was contacted about scheduling a phone interview.

That interview was about half an hour, focusing on culture fit. We ended by scheduling my technical interview.

The technical interview was conducted over a live video call and coding platform. I was given guidelines for one class to create ahead of time, and the interviewer had me make modifications to that class and test them in real time.

None of the questions required extremely specialized algorithms or data structures; they were targeted at identifying thinking and coding style rather than experience.

Questions

Modify your code so that you store every data point related to a class element, rather than just storing the average. Print all of the data.
