I recently interviewed for a Real Estate Agent position at Redfin, an Internet based discount brokerage here in Seattle. I met with Allie Howard, Manager of Washington Operations and Rob McGarty, Manager of West Coast Operations. My already high opinion of Redfin has gone up another notch after meeting these two wonderful people.
Allie and Rob were relaxed, positive, and sharp people. They interviewed me by truly getting to know me - allowing me to express my passions and experiences freely. They shared their vision and passion for Redfin and helping real estate consumers as well. As I left our meeting, I knew that despite if I get hired or not, I had found an ally in the real estate industry.
It wasn't just Allie and Rob that impressed me either. Aime Cook, Redfin's Recruiting Director was incredibly responsive in communicating with me and giving me feedback on the interview. Another Redfin employee (please forgive me I forgot her name) even recognized me from my blogging. The whole company truly felt like a community.
I am hopeful of receiving this position. I know they have some more interviews to complete, and it will be at least a week before I hear back.
Redfin has the feeling like "Something big is going to happen." I wonder if this is what Google felt like in 1998, or Microsoft in 1988? I am hoping to be on the ground level of this amazing company.

I really enjoy reading your article and I must appreciate your work. Many thanks for the post, looking forward for your next post.
An adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) is a mortgage loan where the interest rate on the note is
periodically adjusted based on a variety of indices.[1] Among the most common indices are the
rates on 1-year constant-maturity Treasury (CMT) securities, the Cost of Funds Index (COFI), and
the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). A few lenders use their own cost of funds as an
index, rather than using other indices. This is done to ensure a steady margin for the lender,
whose own cost of funding will usually be related to the index. Consequently, payments made by
the borrower may change over time with the changing interest rate (alternatively, the term of
the loan may change). This is not to be confused with the graduated payment mortgage, which
offers changing payment amounts but a fixed interest rate. Other forms of mortgage loan include
the interest only mortgage, the fixed rate mortgage, the negative amortization mortgage, and the
balloon payment mortgage. Adjustable rates transfer part of the interest rate risk from the
lender to the borrower. They can be used where unpredictable interest rates make fixed rate
loans difficult to obtain. The borrower benefits if the interest rate falls and loses out if
interest rates rise.
