I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Zillow (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2014
Interview
I applied for an Account Manager position and was responded to in a little over a week by a Zillow recruiter. We set up a phone screen and after that, I heard back quickly about speaking to the hiring manager. After speaking to the hiring manager on the phone, I was invited to go onsite to meet some members of the team. During my onsite, I met with two scheduled interviewers, talked to the hiring manager over the phone again, and two other people from another team were pulled in to meet me and ask me questions. After the in-person, I was scheduled to speak over the phone with a Director in Seattle, and then I was scheduled to speak on the phone with a Manager that this position would be working with the day after that. I received an offer two days after the call with the Manager.
Overall, I felt like they were trying to see if I would be a good fit, culturally. I was asked lots of questions about what I like to do, what my hobbies are, etc. Everyone I spoke with was very nice and seemed to be pretty laid back.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I have held quite a few jobs over the past five years or so, (due to layoffs, contract work, etc.) and got a question about whether or not I would move on quickly from the company. It seems like loyalty is very important here, as they seem to really promote from within.

Interview
quick initial interview for prescreening, wasn't in person, virtual, was quick and went over the position, felt comfortable, nice conversation, looking forward to next steps which would be another interview
This was a while ago but I interviewed with several managers who were a part of the same org within the department I'd be working in. I enjoyed it but one of the interviewers ran out of questions and it was, in the end, a bit awkward when I was just offering information.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Zillow
Interview
Shadowing with someone already in the role, several interviews with different managers. Standard questions, discussing previous experience, times adversity was faced, why the role was desired. Got a feel for the office culture while touring the building.
