I applied for the position online and received a call from the recruiter within one week. She was very nice and gathered all the relevant information about my job experience at my current position.

After that call, I received an email from another recruiter from Zillow who scheduled a 45-minute phone interview with the hiring manager for the following week. This email also included a link to a website that allows the interviewer to see the candidate code along with the call.

I prepared for the technical screening and waited for the call from the hiring manager.

First, I received a call from a completely different person. He was very casual and was driving back from vacation. His calls kept dropping during the interview, and all coding-related questions were asked on the fly.

In the end, he was very arrogant about two questions that I couldn't get right, and he didn't let me respond at all.

Overall, it was a very bad experience with the technical interview. I was really excited about interviewing for Zillow, but...

Left vs. Right vs. Inner Joins

ISNULL vs. COALESCE

DELETE vs. TRUNCATE

Some scenario-based questions that were supposed to be presented on CodeShare.
