Applied through glassdoor.. received and email 2 days later to schedule phone interview, was phone interviewed 3 days later by recruiter and by hiring mangers the following day. I was very ecxited when I got asked to be interviewed this is a company that I have always wanted to be part of, but after my experience with the recruiting department and the hiring managers I can say that not getting the job offer was a blessing in disguise. Just like a company wants to hear from their potential employees what great things you can bring and do for their company you would expect the same from a company specially one like Zillow. When I asked one of the hiring managers what we're the growing opportunities within the company one of the responses was "There is really no room for growth, sure you can move to tear 2 customer service and maybe lead but that's about it!"?... or how about this ridiculous answer "well there is really no room for growth we had some cases of people who do but those are the exception!"... I would have rather been told that I wasn't a good fit for the position and be thanked for my time, a McDonald's manager can interview better than that. The fact that one of the managers had no idea what my current position was even though he had my resume in front of him, just shows that they have no respect for others time. Zillow might be one of the best companies to work for and I have no doubt, but now I understand why only 1% is hired it's very disappointing that they are not willing to give a fair chance to individuals who had shown a big interest for the company.

Four different people interview you at separate times. They seem less concerned about how good you will be at your job than they are about how well you will fit in. They don't value diversity, every one of the six people I met that day had the same personality so prepare to come off as a beer loving extrovert. If you are a sorority or frat guy you will fit in perfectly here. Not saying it is a bad thing, but they are definitely more concerned about finding someone to fit into the greek life mentality than someone who is a hard worker and interested in moving up in the company. This explains why they have awesome reviews from co-workers on glassdoor (who wouldn't want to drink and socialize all day at work?) but bad reviews from customers on yelp.

I sent in an online application and was responded to via email within 2 days. They scheduled a phone interview for later that week. The recruiter called me 30 minutes late but was very apologetic. It seemed to go well and we had a 25 minute conversation. He asked very standard questions about my current employment, salary requirements, a situation where I demonstrated excellent customer service, etc. He said he'd contact me if he wanted to schedule an interview - didn't hear back.
