Entrevista
I had an amazing interview experience with Wayfair. Their HR department moved quick and kept me updated along every step. It started with a phone call with their recruiter who was interested at set me up with a technical phone interview. It turned out to be a Google Hangout with one of the iOS developers. I talked about myself, then downloaded a project from the developer. I shared my screen with him and worked on the project as he watched. It was simple and included getting data and displaying it in a table view. After that, I was invited for an on-site interview.
Their office is great and located right in the heart of Boston. I had three interviews, each with two people. First, there was a technical interview where I was tasked with fixing and debugging an existing project. Second, another technical interview but less hands-on and more whiteboard / iOS questions. And third was a personality interview where I met with two leaders in iOS and talked about myself and Wayfair.
Shortly after, they made a great offer, but I decided to go with a different company. It was not easy to say no to Wayfair. They have an amazing team and a great product.
