      Sales Executive Interview

      Jan 17, 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Zillow (New York, NY) in Dec 2017

      Interview

      Really bummed to be honest. I applied for the position in NYC. I currently live in Alabama but had living arrangements in place to move up there. I let them know about my location on the first interview. They said it wouldn't be a problem and that they would simply do a video conference interview in place of an in person interview. They said it was common and won't be a problem. I got the second interview and it went great. A recruiter followed up the following week saying they wanted to have the final interview and asked when I could visit the office. I told them the first recruiter said I could do a video conference interview. That didn't seem to be a problem until an hour later the recruiter said the sales team changed their mind on the video conference interview. From here everything spiraled out of control. It took weeks for the recruiters and the sales teams to communicate. A recruiter setup a phone call for me to speak with a sales manager and that they would have a solution for the situation. The sales manager instead ran me through an interview and at the end said the recruiters would decide what would be done for the final interview. It has been weeks and the recruiter finally told me I would have to fly up for the interview or they would just have to go with someone else. In the end I think it's important for people and business to own their mistakes. The teams didn't communicate well with each other and expected me to compromise for their mistake. Zillow looks like a great company. I'm upset things didn't turn out differently. Unfortunate to perform well and not get an opportunity for circumstances out of your control.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback on the interview process for the Sales Executive role in our New York office. We do our best to ensure that all candidates are communicated with in a timely manner when the interview process is taking longer than usual I see this may not have happened with you and for that I apologize. For this role we do require that non local candidates complete both a video interview and an onsite interview at our NY office. Again I am sorry for the delay and confusion in communication, and should you wish to discuss the matter further you can contact me directly at sryan@zillowgroup.com. –Sheree Ryan, Lead Sales Recruiter.
