- there was also a lunch included as well a tour of the facilities

Interview Details – Intuit interview process is very standardized, using planned behavioral questions

Negotiation Details – Straight forward

Interview Details – The interview process was not difficult. I interviewed with two manager 1:1, then together. The first was with the immediate manager and the director in the same week. I got the feeling the company culture included an affinity towards customers, employees, and shareholders. There is also a commitment to the community, which is a plus for this organization.

Negotiation Details – there was no negotiation. they contended the offer, which was generous, is what fixed in terms of an offer.

Interview Details – Initial 45 min interview, asked to write basic data structure like stack impl, using hashmap, write Fibonacci, Interviewer was mostly quite and felt like forced to interview. Then was called onsite, 5 interviews, 2 with senior developers and 2 staff members. Senior developers were not knowledgeable, staff members asked good puzzle only questions which I could not answer. Interview with product manager was waste of time. Also they do not file GC for Sr Software Engineers in EB2. So beware before you go for interview !

Interview Details – The recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn in late March. I am pretty sure she didn't read my profile very close on LinkedIn since the opening positions she mentioned in her message didn't fit my years of experience (I am more like a Junior - Associate level than Senior - Principle level).

She invited me with a phone chat and we did. The conversation was good. She said the Interaction Designer (Marketing) position sounds like a better fit for me and she'd like to arrange a phone screen with me, the Senior Interaction Designer and herself. I agreed and she said she would contact me for the phone screening time. And, she never call or respond my email.

I was surprised that a big company like Intuit is very unprofessional on the hiring process. Very disappointed and glad I didn't get moved forward for the next step.

Interview Details – Interview process was conducted by a combination of a panel and individual interviews. Total of 3 interviews with ~5 people. People were friendly and usually knowledgeable however job description and actual duties did not align with interview

Negotiation Details – Salary was not very negotiable. Vacation was negotiable. Stocks and bonuses where set by role and non negotiable

Interview Details – Was referred to by an internal contact. I first got a call from the recruiter. That call went well so she scheduled a call with the hiring manager about a week later. Had a great call with him as well so they then they scheduled onsite interviews. I met 6 different people for about 45 min each. Basically everyone on the team I would be working with. I was there from 9am to about 2pm. Up this point the process was really smooth and the hiring team was very responsive to my questions.

I thought the interviews went well but I never heard back. Couple of weeks went by and I pinged the recruiter and HR person but they didn't even bother replying back to me. It's been about three weeks now so I think their decision is obvious.

Extremely unprofessional that they don't even reply back.

Interview Details – Was informal and conducted by peer staff who had not read my resume. They described the job fully, and asked if this was something I had done/could do, but we spent very little time talking specifics or reviewing my work. It was as if they had already decided on someone else and were just going through the motions.

Interview Details – Very detailed and thorough interviewing process. Expect a minimum of 4 separate interviews, possibly more. I had an HR phone screening, and was invited back 2 more times, each with 2-3 people interviewing me back to back, in addition to 2 people calling in for phone interviews.

Negotiation Details – I always ask for more, even if it is a great offer, like this one at Intuit. They did not give me more, as what I was getting was about $20K more than I was making, which they knew, and could leverage. If at all possible, do NOT tell them what you are making. In my case, yes, it was $20K more than I was making, but, I felt I was under paid at my previous job, which doesn't really work when trying to negotiate.

Also, I was given a chunk of Intuit Stock when I started. To my knowledge, they are not providing that to new hires except in rare circumstances like very sought after skill sets, so do your best to negotiate Stock.
