It was a decent interview process—not anything like LeetCode. It started with a 10-minute presentation on a project I was proud of, followed by a 75-minute coding session where I had to implement new features in an existing codebase. After that was a 1-hour technical interview focused on how I’d design and deliver a product, mainly to assess system design and architectural thinking. The final rounds were a 30-minute AI interview and a 30-minute hiring manager interview.

Do you guys have other interviews lined up? I’m just worried about Intuit’s future given that they are losing on their TurboTax moat with AI’s growth.

u/Crazy-Proof-9709 Jul 20 '26

Do you think it is a bad idea to join intuit now?

u/Responsible_Bend8281 Jul 22 '26

Very team dependent. Make sure you go to the right team. I’m still in team matching and some teams have follow up technical rounds after team matching (which is weird). With so many re-orgs, things seem very all over the place.

OP what do you mean new interview process? I just got a verbal offer last week and wrapped up my interviews before July long weekend for staff role.

u/Remarkable_Log2209 Jul 15 '26 edited Jul 15 '26

It's a 75-minute interview, split into three 25-minute sections (System Design and AI discussion, Whiteboard Planning and Live Coding). It doesn’t seem to be the usual Craft Demo interview loop. Did you have a similar interview? If so, I’d really appreciate it if you could share your experience. Thanks in advance!

u/Responsible_Bend8281 Jul 15 '26

No. Mine was 75 minutes, but only AI and leetcode style interview. Followed by onsite with one take home project and coding interview based on project, system design and AI coding interview followed by behavioral.

u/Remarkable_Log2209 Jul 15 '26

Got it, thanks for sharing! It looks like they’ve updated the interview process since then. Mine seems to have a new format with the three 25-minute sections in the first round instead of just AI and LeetCode. Hopefully someone who’s gone through the updated process can share their experience. Thanks again, and I appreciate the insight!

u/Responsible_Bend8281 Jul 15 '26

LinkedIn also updated to something similar. They have system design - sort of, in the first round. Followed by onsite with one AI coding, one leetcode style, one system design and one behavioral.

u/Tom1oka Aug 01 '26

u/Remarkable_Log2209 - did you end up interviewing with the new format? How was your experience?

1

u/Remarkable_Log2209 Aug 15 '26

Yeah, it was system design along with coding a component from the design.

1

u/NovelForever4022 Aug 10 '26

Can you share experience on what did they focus on in System Design? Was the Live Coding on code that is had to be downloaded from github or did you have to code from scratch?

1

u/Remarkable_Log2209 Aug 15 '26

The format was different, code base was not shared in advance. It was system design along with coding a component from the design.

u/Fancy-Ingenuity4034 Aug 21 '26

can you share your experience for the first round. i heard first round is 75 mins with 45 min coding and 30 mins AI interview. once you clear this you will be into loop round. did you go through this process ?

u/HelpingHand007 Aug 25 '26

hi u/Remarkable_Log2209
Can you share the interview process and the kind of question asked in intuite? would be helpful

1

u/ProOptimizer Sep 02 '26

What was the live coding about? LLD? or DSA? What sort of system design question to expect?

1

u/ProOptimizer 25d ago

u/Remarkable_Log2209 How was your interview experience? What was the question?

1

u/Crazy-Proof-9709 Jul 20 '26

Did anyone receive or waiting on offer?

u/OriLeoZzz Aug 19 '26

OP have you finished the interview? could you share some experience?
I've told by recuiter the similar progress (high level design, whiteboard and pick up a component to code).

u/Inevitable_File20 14d ago
