Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington

I applied through a friend who used to work at Zillow. She got me in touch with her former colleague there, and I interviewed for two teams in July 2022.
Everyone I met was super smart, interesting, and friendly. It seems like a great place to work with many exciting opportunities.
The interview process was very smooth and took roughly three weeks. I am currently waiting to hear if I have an offer.
