Application
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Zillow (Seattle, WA) in Dec 2016
Interview
Applied online and was sent an analytics test to complete within a week
After submitting my solution, heard back a couple hours later to set up a phone interview with a hiring manager: seeing as the analytics test took care of the technical skills required, the interview was primarily focused on how my experience overlaps with the requirements of the role, so most of the 30 minutes was just going over my resume and my future career interests
Heard back an hour later after the phone interview to go onsite for final round, which involved 3 back-to-back interviews: similar to the phone interview, the interviewers were mainly interested in my experiences and what I wanted to do next in my professional life
Everyone was extremely friendly, approachable and this was such a quick process - it took one week from when I submitted my test to getting the offer!
