My resume was submitted. It took many weeks before anyone got back to me. I had a phone interview with one of the supevisors and then was invited to an in person interview,
Met with two of the supervisors. Did not hear back again for at least two weeks. Tried to contact both the person in HR and the interviewers to follow up on the position, but could never reach them by phone. Eventually got a call from a third party source telling me I they would like to offer me the position. Trulia has changed the hiring process since the time I was interviewed.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Trulia (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2011
Interview
HR sent me an email with dates to choose from with a 2 hour interview block. The interview did not take that long and it was a bit misleading. I met with 2 people from the sales department. Everyone in the office was nice and cordial, but the interview questions were a bit condescending and quite frankly redundant. I didn't feel it highlighted any of my skills and the skills needed for this job. I later found it was a low paying, entry level position.
I was given a tour of the sales department and sure enough it was reflected that the company utilizes new grads and entry level job seekers to sell their business services, as opposed to using talented account executives. I did ask a lot of questions about the job, it's requirements and room for advancement. I found there is not much room for advancement in or out of this department.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Trulia (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2011
Interview
Called in for an interview which consisted of myself and another applicant being interviewed by 3-4 managers. Very nice office, interview with another applicant was a little unusual. Definitely be prepared for sales questions and questions on your sales background.
