Young Harvill, Zazzle FellowOne of the key reasons to be at Zazzle is that we get to work with really smart people who understand things without explaining all of the tech underpinnings. Although this seems like an obvious thing that should just be the case in a Tech company, it turns out to be a rare, wonderful thing. Another cool thing about Zazzle it that we have of users creating things in all kinds of ways. Really very many ways. When I write code and it is placed in this huge flow of creativity, I get to learn a tremendous amount about just how useful my code is and how well it was crafted. This is a very cool space to be if you are an engineer/entrepreneur.

Application
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zazzle (Redwood City, CA) in November 2012.
Interview
Zazzle was definitely one of the most challenging places I had interviewed at. Arriving at the location. I was surprised at how large the building was. I had previously expected only a small office space since I heard it was a budding startup. I agree with the other reviewer that the place was rather disorganized and the construction going on was quite distracting. However, I think that it is perfectly reasonable since they are undergoing an office renovation, and the employees have no control over it. I was assured that the building would look awesome by the summer. Everyone that I talked to at Zazzle was incredibly brilliant. I have been to 40+ software engineering interviews over the past 2 months, and this was by far the most challenging process I had to go through. I went through 5 interviewers back to back, each for around 45mins to 1hour. I was there for a total of 5hours 30mins.
All the questions they asked ranged from moderately challenging to very challenging. I think the nature and difficulty of questions they posted to me made me even more excited about joining the company. Many software engineers at the company are Stanford & MIT computer scientists, many with postgraduate degrees, and some even have phds.
They were all very friendly to me, and I loved the atmosphere there.
