      Senior Marketing Interview

      Sep 27, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zillow (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2017

      Interview

      The first few steps in the interview process happened fairly quickly. I applied online through a job posting on LinkedIn, and about 2 days later a recruiting coordinator reached out to set up a quick phone screen with the lead recruiter. Had a 30 minute chat with her to go over my basic qualifications and experience. Within the next few days they set up a phone interview with the hiring manager. Oddly enough, it was only 30 minutes and very high level, but it went ok enough that they asked me to come in for a 90 minute interview the next day. Turns out it wasn't really an interview, but rather they wanted me to complete an Excel assessment. One of the marketing team members put me in a room with a laptop and handed me a spreadsheet with 3 sets of data and questions for each one. About an hour later, she came back and we review my answers. She asked a few random questions about my experience, and then it was over. That was the last contact I had from them. About 2 weeks passed with no communication from the recruiting team, so I shot them a status check email. Within an hour, I got a template email that said they are moving forward with other candidates. For the record, this is the same email applicants who are not interviewed also get. So unbelievably impersonal and unhelpful. I've heard that Zillow tends to ghost on candidates, and clearly this is true.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Excel assessment that included 3 data sets. First data set included a chart with yearly sales figures for a handful of products. Question was to identify the pattern in the data and determine which product will have the most amount of sales in the next 2 years. Second data set had performance figures for a standard CPC campaign, with questions around calculating conversion rate, CPA, and other basic marketing metrics. Third data set was similar to the second one, in that it involved making marketing decisions based on campaign performance data.
