We hire interns year-round and are open to student and graduate applicants from bachelor’s and master’s programmes.

You’ll gain experience and insight into your team’s day-to-day responsibilities while supporting them in achieving their goals. You must be enrolled full-time at a university and available to work 16–20 hours per week. We hire working students year-round for our locations in Germany.
As a full-time employee, you’ll be challenged to solve complex problems and develop solutions to company-wide initiatives. We are looking for analysts and associates who are passionate about technology and e-commerce. We hire aspiring and recent graduates year-round.
Whether through data-driven product design, our modern end-to-end tech stack or building world-class experiences and relationships for our customers, partners and employees – Wayfair is changing the future of home.
No matter what role or tenure, interviews consist of behavioural questions and scenario-based questions. Behavioural questions are specifically-designed questions inspired by the core pillars against which all Wayfair employees are assessed: We Drive Results, We Win Together, and We Are Always Improving. Scenario-based questions are used to assess how candidates might operate in a real-world setting. Here are some tips to help you prepare!
What’s New
One of our missions at Wayfair is to help our 22 million customers find the products they are looking for. For example, when a customer searches for a “modern yellow sofa” on Wayfair, we want to show the most relevant options from the tens of thousands of sofas available in our catalog. To do that, it is important to have a strong understanding of the products we sell. We use machine learning algorithms to analyze and understand the descriptive information (e.g. color, shape) of over 40 million products provided by more than 20 thousand suppliers in our catalog.

Continuing its investment in renewable energy generation, Wayfair — along with a consortium of companies including EMD Electronics, Biogen Inc., Autodesk Inc., and a large healthcare company — entered into a large aggregated virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA) with Recurrent Energy, a subsidiary of Canadian Solar, Inc., for 100% of the production capacity of their solar project Liberty Solar. As part of this agreement, Wayfair is contracted to offtake 15MW of power, which we expect to represent over 64% of our energy consumption in North America in 2022.

Search relevance – the relationship between users’ queries and the products returned in search results – is one of the most important performance indicators for ecommerce storefronts. However, the sheer volume of the data makes evaluating and improving search relevance a difficult proposition. To give just one example, the Wayfair catalog has millions of products, which makes it difficult to create relevance-focused evaluation datasets manually.
