I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Wayfair in May 2022
Interview
I applied to Wayfair through a referral through an old co-worker. After talking with the initial person of contact, I got sent the Karat interview. After finishing that, I received a call from a different person at Wayfair letting me know that I passed the technical screen & that they'd be in contact next week to move forward. After that call I never heard from anyone at Wayfair again. I tried contacting the employee I was initially working through, but their inbox was disabled due to not being an employee there anymore.
