      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Jul 11, 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Zillow in Apr 2023

      Interview

      Someone reached out to me at first and we quickly scheduled a coding phone interview. Phone interview was on Android framework knowledge mostly. After the phone interview I was told I'm moving on to onsite. This is when things started going downhill. I passed onto another member of the hiring staff. They were supposed to help me schedule the onsite. I had major issues trying to schedule the onsite with this new person. I had to schedule the onsite and a pre-onsite site call with this new person. I sent my availability for both the onsite and pre-onsite chat. When it came time for the scheduled interview with they never showed up. I think this happened twice. After the person didn't show up, they then called me at a random hour of the day (not part of my availability). I also had to send my availability for the onsite at least twice. I finally just gave up and told them I'm not interested because I cannot trust a company who doesn't respect my time. It's worth noting that it's been maybe two months since I did my original phone interview. Since then, companies whom I applied to AFTER my phone interview with Zillow have caught up and scheduled (and completed) onsites with me.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Zillow

      Interview

      Proceso de MESES de coordinacion donde te cancelan las entrevistas apenas instantes antes. Personalmente, entre a una de ellas y la reclutadora insistio en que el entrevistador habia entrado "y yo no", cuando si habia entrado. Completamente una falta de respeto. Su proceso de coordinacion y reforzamiento para que los entrevistadores no esten haciendo tanto rescheduling es PESIMO.

      Interview

      Son 6 pasos: El del recruiter El screen > live coding de un problema regular de producción no es tipo leetcode Una vez completados vienen estos son 4 que son con el equipo con el que se llena la vacante: - System Design : white board de un buscador de propiedades que además debe relacionarse con el ecosistema de la empresa. - refactor: live coding de un problema de producción con código feo que hay que acomodar, es mucho lo que se puede corregir y no da tiempo de todo. - engineer: esta es behavioral y se trata de responder en formato star - greenfield : es igual que la de screening pero ahora con alguien del equipo
