Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Zillow (Seattle, WA) nel mese di ago 2016
Colloquio
Phone interview was pretty seamless, they used a pair-programming site and had me do a few interesting JS problems. Questions seemed appropriate, and they weren't hung up on dumb stuff like syntax or arcane knowlege - it seemed to test programming ability.
On-site was a series of interviews with different people. Some asked questions on background, experience etc.; some just talked with me about industry stuff; a couple had coding challenges, which weren't super hard.

Colloquio
The interviewer was nice and polite. He asked me about my previous experience. Also asked questions about general things from which I could tell more about certain aspects of my abilities and experiences. As I understood - accessible UX and code testing is a very important skill and point for the company. We talked about these topics much. Besides this, there were also typical Frontend/React questions about technology features. Not only hard skills but soft skills also matter to them. In general - the interview did not feel like an interrogation, it was pleasant to talk to the interviewer and he left a pleasant impression of the company.

Colloquio
I had some phone connectivity issues. The person I was scheduled to speak with did call me at the scheduled time. As soon as I realized that I was not receiving calls and got a voicemail, I tried contacting the recruiter. The number provided to return the call was going to a generic voicemail, and I tried the Zillow phone directory (extension number) to leave a message. I also sent an email apologizing for missing the call.
The recruiter seemed to be interested in rescheduling. I gave him some alternative times. I never got an interview scheduled. Instead, I got a mail early morning after just one day:
"We’re writing to thank you for your interest in the Front End Software Engineer role. Unfortunately, the position is now filled."
It is interesting to see the role is still open on job portals. Bad experience. I thought this is a great company to work for, but obviously they don't care for potential employees.

I am so sorry to hear that we had some technical challenges and the call was not rescheduled even to close the loop. They must have changed plans or moved forward with another candidate in the meantime, but that is an unfortunate experience none the less. Thank you again for your feedback. We take all this to heart. Annie Rihn - VP Recruiting
