I'm an SDE2 at Amazon with 3 YOE (2 at the zon). I'm quitting after my vest in a couple months. I applied to Zillow and got rejected from everything and now those 3 positions don't exist. I got referrals and I've heard back from smaller companies in Seattle but not Zillow? Anyone know why or what I should do? Apply to more roles? Email a recruiter?
Any reason you are targeting Zillow?
they seem chill enough and are fairly harmless
Harmless ...lol 🔪
Shame, zillow is the easiest company to get into
and you know this by interviewing in all companies in the world? Don’t degrade yourself calling others shame…
Wow buddy, calm down. Second, learn how to read
did u apply for a senior role or a mid level role?
mid level I'm pretty sure. most said 3+ years experience or just didn't say nothing with Senior in the name
Zillow's recruiting is impossibly hard and pretty awful. Rejection is common for well qualified roles, but those sound like they just closed up.
Keep bumping the referrals for new roles, we have tons and I've not heard of any limits, resume screening is a mess
yeah it seems like a hit or miss. I got referred to 3 positions. only got 1 callback
Not bad odds from what I've seen, keep trying. I applied to 8 before getting an interview, and the company was much smaller then
Referrals don’t seem to work even though they say internally that referrals are given a higher priority. They’ve gone fully remote now so you can apply to any number of roles you’d like. Some teams are hungrier for folks to join than others so YMMV.
Zillow is difficult to crack in many departments if you just rely on leetcode. Many folks from Amazon interview everyday and rejections are high. Keep trying ...all the best . Referrals do not give you any edge in clearing the final round.
