J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris plus d'une semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Intuit (Paris)
Entretien
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.
Applied through referral after initially applying on the careers page. The process started with a recruiter screen discussing my background, tech stack, and role expectations. This was followed by a 1-hour phone screen with coding questions using the Glider platform. The onsite loop was around 6 hours and included a backend hands-on exercise, system design discussions, and deep dives into my solution and past experience. Recruiter communication was clear and timely throughout the process.
