Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 4 weeks)
After being contacted by a recruiter via a career Website, the initial interview was a phone interview through the external recruiter who was filing the position for the company. It consisted mainly of the technical experience that would be requisite of the position. After the phone interview, there was a 1 on 1 interview with the recruiter at the recruiter's office to go over additional qualifications and future ambitions. After that, an interview was scheduled with Intuit. That interview was a group interview, where I met with 6 people, one after the other. While it was long, it did show a good cross section of the people (both potential coworkers, managers and partners) that I would be working with. I learned much about the position at that interview which wasn't conveyed by the external recruiter and decided not to continue pursuing the position at that point.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 3 months)
I gave my resume to Intuit's booth at the college career fair, and was called for an on-campus interview a few weeks (<1 month) later. This interview was 1hr, and I switched between two interviewers. The first person asked personal questions, eg., "Tell me about an experience that challenged you," while the second asked me to analyse a simple bit of code. I then had a phone interview with Intuit's recruiter, and another phone interview with the project manager (both were personal, focused on resume). Finally, I had an interview over WebEx with two engineers, which was technical. I have yet to hear back from Intuit.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 3 months)
Applied online and had a Phone interview in early December 2011. The interview went well and I was told by the hiring manager that candidates would be brought in for interviews before the holidays.
I e-mailed the recruiter one week before Christmas and was told in an e-mail that the hiring manager was interested in me, but that no in-person interviews were scheduled yet.
The recruiter said in e-mail that she would reach out to me once the hiring manager had scheduled in-person interviews.
One month later (January 2012), I heard nothing, so I sent a follow-up e-mail to the recruiter.
Still nothing.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Mountain View, CA (took 3 weeks)
I did not mean to apply for the SE RDP program, but some how found my way to an onsite interview. I was unprepared for the coding question, which was not unexpected, and because of it was declined. However, the team was fantastic, professional in all the ways that matter, friendly and personable as well. In spite of getting declined, I still hold the whole team with high regard.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 4 days)
Very professional, they seemed to be very interested in my background and experience, and treated me accordingly. I know other candidates who were not treated as well or pursued as aggressively.
The paid me at the top of their pay range, which worked perfectly for me as this is a work from home part-year job. I had to negotiate to get that, but that seemed just a formality.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Mountain View, CA (took 2 days)
Submitted a resume through their recruiting website, and contacted a current employee to pass my resume along. Was contacted to set up a phone interview, which consisted of two 45 minute mostly-technical questions, including reviewing and writing some code in a shared Google doc. From here, was invited to visit on-site in Mountain View. This on-site interview process (which lasted most of a day) consisted of some general presentations about the company and position, several one-on-one interviews which were a good balance between technical and behavioral in nature, lunch, a campus tour, and some additional demo/Q&A type sessions. I found the campus to be very appealing, with a strong emphasis on collaboration and a great atmosphere. The workspaces did not come across like a standard cubicle farm, it felt a lot more modern and appealing.

Asked them to match another offer from a different company, they didn't fully close the gap but did come back with a competitive offer, which I felt was acceptable.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Waltham, MA (took 5 days)
Through a contact, I was referred to the recruiter, phone screened by the recruiter, then phone screened by a marketing manager in another department a few days later. Was pleased as to how quickly the screens took place. However, the recruiter was vague as to why I was being screened by someone in another department. Thought that was weird if they did not understand the position and responsibilities. Questions were focused on how I work rather than product background or knowledge. Several emails to the recruiter afterwards as to my status went unanswered. Same for my contact, no response to my question as to relationship of the marketing manager screening for the product manager position. Perhaps he was moving over to assume management of that role, in which case, if no experience in product management, I would not have wanted the position. Lack of response in both cases seems unprofessional, but very revealing about the company personality.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Mountain View, CA (took 3 weeks)
An HR person at Intuit contacted me to let me know that I would be having two thirty-minute phone interviews back to back, where I would call in to a conference line and each interviewer would be on the line at a prescribed time. However, when I called in for my first interview, there was no one on the line. I stayed on the line and called both HR contacts I had (from another phone), but neither picked up. Eventually, the second interviewer came on the line and asked some fairly basic behavioral questions.
HR then called me the next day to reschedule the first interview for later in the week, and when I dialed in a second time, I was listening to a dead line again. Finally, the next week, I completed the other phone interview, which consisted of behavioral questions along the same lines as those of the first interview. Then, it took two weeks, three emails and two phone calls to HR in order to receive an automated response informing me that I would not continue on in the process.
I enjoyed the people I spoke with...when I could get a hold of them. They seemed down to earth and friendly, and each emphasized the unique company culture at Intuit. However, I was extremely unimpressed and put off by the entire interview process overall.
