I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Berlin) in Feb 2017
Interview
First chat with HR with normal questions and then two rounds techinal interviews with two of the senior developers. It was through Skype and an online editor. The process was with respect and everything on time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Quesrions were about algorithms, time complexity and PHP functions in details. I didn't find the questions really helpful because in daily work if you intend to find about the function details you spend time and find it. What matters most in my opinion is the mindset and experience of a developer. Any developers can find some details and ask it from another devloper who is not aware of the details and then mark the developer as not qualified. Interviewers also admited that these details in daily work is not that much important but they said they had to ask these questions and ask for solutions.
HR reached out and scheduled the discussion - discussed the details of the position.
One Online assignment
Scheduled one DSA round. - medium leetcode
System design round discussion - where we discussed the details of the different component of the system

Overall ok but the coding test environment is like a black box that you just can’t debug. If you solve by debugging, you’re doomed. LeetCode won’t really prepare you for this.
