I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Zillow (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2013
Interview
1. 3 interviews. 3 separate Managers. Third one was with guy who looked as if he hasn't showered in 3 weeks.
2. Phone interview, In person which takes about 1.5 hours.
3. There is little to no respect for your time while waiting for the interview. I waited for 30 mins just to speak with each manager.
4. This seems like a tech start up who is looking for new college grads to put the ringer. The average person last 90 days or less which is clearly stated in the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mock sales Call. 3rd Interview guy was asking questions not related to job at all. This interview is all about fitting into their company culture. I have multiple years experience in mortgage as well as sales background.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zillow (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2016
Interview
All in all, the process took about two weeks. I was contacted by a recruiter within 48 hours of applying online. The conversation lasted about 10 minutes and was focused on my knowledge of the position, my current situation and skills. Two days later I had a second, more focused phone interview with a sales manager. This conversation focused on how my experience directly relates to the position. This call lasted 20-30 minutes. After another two days I had my on-site interview and met with three different employees. This lasted around 1.5 hours and focused on my past employment, current employment, and how I would excel at the position.

At your current job, what sort of day-to-day grinds do you experience? Why Zillow? What makes me a good fit for the position/company?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zillow
Interview
Applied online. Contacted about a week later. Began with the recruiter with a 20 min conversation about expectations regarding the position. If found to be a good fit, they push you to the 2nd phone interview. This one lasted about 20-30min. Posed more experience based questions that ensured a complete understanding of the role and its responsibilities. A day later I received a follow-up e-mail with a choice time to schedule the final interview with 3 different Managers (VP of Sales, GM, and a Sales Manager). All were very in depth questions regarding past work history and ensuring a complete understanding of the role and its responsibilities. Role played: sales pitch to test the knowledge of the product and see if there is a fluidity to the sales cycle.

I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Zillow (Irvine, CA) in Sept 2015
Interview
I found the job posting on indeed.com for the inside sales consultant position. I applied online and received an email the next day from a recruiting coordinator asking a few questions and requesting the days and times I was available for a phone interview. I had a 15-20 min phone interview with a different recruiter out of the Seattle office a week later. The next day I had a phone interview with a sales executive manager out of the Irvine Office. I was scheduled to come in the next business day for an in-person interview in the Irvine Office with 2 sales managers and the director. I heard back the next business day from the recruiter and was offered the position. I came close to the cut off period so my process was expedited.
