      Human Resources Interview

      22 Sept 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Wayfair in Aug 2015

      Interview

      I've had some bad interview experiences here and there over the years, but I've never been compelled to write a review about it. I was beyond disappointed with my interview and candidate experience with Wayfair. I had really high hopes for Wayfair and the position I applied to sounded perfect for what I was looking for. I was excited and prepared for my initial phone interview, but things quickly went south. Spoke with Recruiter #1, who was 15 minutes late for our call (which was fine, these things happen). Conversation went really well, and he told me that he was going to speak with the hiring manager the following day, and they would work to get me in for an in-person interview shortly thereafter. I followed up, and weeks later, still no response. Then, I received an email from Recruiter #2. I responded immediately with my availability for a phone interview, and it took him the better part of a week to get back to me. Was still excited for my second phone call with Wayfair, hoping Recruiter #1 was just a fluke, but Recruiter #2 never ended up calling at our scheduled time. I wrote him to see if he'd like to reschedule, and I'm still waiting on a response. Even if I do end up hearing back, I'm no longer interested in working for Wayfair, given that I was going after a role in HR, and these would be my potential colleagues. Based on other reviews I've read here, unfortunately it seems I'm not the only one who has had this type of experience.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Dublin, Dublin
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Wayfair (Dublin, Dublin)

      Interview

      Variety of different interviewers in sequence - not a lot of synchronisation between interviewers. Interesting company but salary offered was below expectations I stated at the start of the process.

      Human Resources Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I interviewed at Wayfair (New York, NY)

      Interview

      I was very excited about this potential opportunity and was invited for a first round interview and then was ghosted. I sent a few follow up emails over a course of a few weeks and was never given any update. It’s as if the recruiter accidentally sent me an invite and then didn’t provide any update whatsoever and just ghosted me. If an Recruiter who’s the first point of contact is rude to prospective candidates I can only imagine what the true culture is like. Horrible experience!

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wayfair (Denver, CO)

      Interview

      Contacted by an internal recruiter who was very unresponsive. The hiring manager seemed preoccupied during our video interview and even appeared to be answering emails. Made it very apparent that there is some serious internal chaos happening, dodged a bullet by not joining this company!
