I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Boston, MA) in Feb 2010
Interview
At the time, Wayfair was still CSN Stores. A recruiter emailed me shortly after applying via my university job portal; we arranged an interview and I was sent an application to bring with me to the interview. I met with the hiring manager and had a relaxed and candid talk about the company, my experience, and the position. We decided during the interview that the position wasn't a good fit, and the hiring manager forwarded my resume for roles that might have been a better fit. I didn't end up hearing back from them, but my overall impression of the company was still positive.
There was a brief wait upon arrival, during which I had a chance to scope out the office. It's on the 9th floor of one of the Christian Science buildings (no affiliation), open plan with plenty of natural light. Everyone seemed busy without being frenetic.

Met with recruiter for fifteen minutes to review the position and answer any general questions. Proceeded with two managers for about an hour, that asked your basic interview questions (when have you encountered a problem, strengths/weakness, etc.) Can you deal with entering data for eight hours?
