I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Zillow (Irvine, CA) in Mar 2020
Interview
One initial technical interview. Then a week later two technicals back to back. They asked me complex system design questions when I was only a first year. I think they expect people who already have some sort of background, despite being an entry level position.
