Zillow Software Development Engineer interview questions

phone screen, followed by a long day of on sites. Horrible experience, especially with recruiters. It seems to me that the recruiters at this company are paid by candidates that receive and accept the offer. I know that Zillow is considered a growing company that has potential, but during the interviews my overall experience was that it was not such a happy place to be in. Overall, the interviewers were polite and acted correctly, but I didn't get any vibe from them. Nothing. Very low energy. But by far the worst was the recruiter who called me to tell me that I did not receive the offer. He was rude, unpleasant and made me feel like I failed completely. He refused to let me know what went wrong. Luckily, I have offers from other top companies so that makes me feel much better about myself.

After a good interview with recruiters at my university I was invited to the Seattle location for an interview with 3 engineers. Unfortunately the stars poorly aligned and things did not work out but it was a worthwhile experience. Very fair technical questions.
