I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Intuit (New York, NY) in Aug 2019
Interview
Given the rating Intuit generally have especially for interviewing processes, I was really surprised by the person interviewing me. He was able to judge my coding skills over a phone round based on string question which was to generate random string of given length even though I answered it correctly. And he had only one question for me to judge my coding skills in an interview of one hour!!
I really didn't like his whole attitude in the interview process at all. Didn't expect this at all.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Intuit (Paris)
Interview
Complete waste of time !
They don't respect their candidates, they'll ask you to jump through multiple hoops but won't take 5min to tell you they filled the position / meeting was canceled.
I had multiple interviews with Intuit. First phone interview with a recruiter, then on site 1 on 1 with a technical person (present your background, past experiences, algorithm questions). People were friendly and respectful (even if when I was really bad at the first interview out of stress).
Then they ask you to create a project for them with multiple constraints. Project was interesting and well thought (the constraints really guide the design).
After the project's validation they invite you for a final interview for a total of 3h :
- 55min presentation to panel of 4 people (and you have to do a presentation, so more work for you)
- followed by multiple technical and competency interviews (with different people)
I put in the work, prepared my presentation and the interview and went in to the office (they ask you to be there 15min ahead of time), only to wait for 45min in the lobby for someone to tell me the meeting was cancelled and the position has been filled.
I can't tell you how disappointed I was after all the effort I put in. It's even sadder considering that most people I interacted with were nice, respectful and professional. It's really bad to end on such a bad note, considering most people in the process put in the effort to make it enjoyable.
This is completely unprofessional and shows a lack of respect towards the candidate and that the effort is completely one-sided.
They say it was a mistake and they were supposed to contact me, but the least in this case was to make sure I got the information (ask for confirmation email) or even better call in Person. After all the time & commitment to this process, this is really the least they could do.
I wanted to share this experience so that this mistake won't happen again and hopefully others won't waste their time.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Intuit (Bengaluru) in Mar 2019
Interview
Unprofessional HR wonder how they are ranked best best firm to work for!!
Recruiter contacted me initially they said about one team which runs its application on public cloud in a distributed environment and I agreed to give interview, then they changed it to some tools building team where I requested them to change the team which they did after a while. the interview process is of medium difficulty and the process took two weeks and one more week to get the offer. In the interim I've got an offer from a Cloud based startup (which is my passion to work for) and I told immediately to Intuit HR that I won't be joining because of it and wrote a courtesy e-mail so that they don't block the position.
The recruiter was very professional stating "if this time intuit is not suited for I doubt it will be so for in future!" I was really pulled back but couldn't care-less and felt happy that I didn't join this firm with a nice set of people.
