The popular property-listings website might help you find your future home someday, but right now they’re seeking your help: Zillow plans to add 2,000 new workers this year to add to its roughly 5,000-employee workforce nationally.

On a recent earnings call, as first reported by Business Insider, company CEO Rich Barton mentioned that the company received 153,000 job applications in the first half of 2021, which is nearly 50% more than before the pandemic. Zillow is valued at $25 billion.

The company is looking for talent across several industries, including engineers, analysts, and IT managers, and we now know just how much they are willing to pay, with salaries as high as $325,000.

What is Zillow?

Founded in 2006, Zillow is the most-visited real-estate website in the U.S., offering customers an easy online experience for selling, buying, renting, and financing homes.

It has since launched several branches including Zillow Offers, a service for buying and selling homes directly in markets across the country; and Zillow Home Loans, a service to get preapproved and secure financing on your next home purchase.

Where is Zillow?

Zillow’s headquarters is in Seattle. It also has eight other locations spread across the U.S., including Cincinnati, Denver, and San Francisco.

Why are they hiring?

Zillow is expanding and wants to grow a new business for the company.

Business Insider reported that the company is pouring resources into its iBuying arm, which they described as a “fast-expanding business in which it purchases and then flips homes for a quick profit while seeking to package lucrative ancillary services into the transactions, such as sourcing mortgage financing for buyers and providing title insurance.” That business took off during the pandemic, and now it wants to grow.
