WHAT TO EXPECT

Your experience at Zillow.

The nine-week summer internship program, running June through August 2027, gives you the opportunity to bring ideas and perspectives to real projects alongside Zillow teams, connect with mentors and leaders, and take part in learning and community experiences with your intern cohort. The internships are based in Seattle and follow a hybrid schedule, with interns generally working together in-person Tuesday through Thursday.

Real Projects, Real Ownership

Work on meaningful projects that ship, all summer long. Your contributions go directly into products that millions of people use to find their next home.

Mentorship Built In

You'll be paired with a mentor from your team. Experience weekly 1:1s, feedback loops, and a real advocate for your growth.

Learning & Development

Speaker series, lunch-and-learns, and a structured curriculum for nine weeks — you'll leave with more than a line on your resume.

Built-In Community

You won't be going at it alone. A Seattle-based cohort of talented, curious people just like you, and plenty of opportunities to connect beyond the work.
