Got laid off a few months ago and Intuit was one of the first companies I seriously pursued. I ended up going through the recruiter screen twice: once for a Sr. PMM role and once for a content strategy role on a different team. The recruiter screen is pretty standard but I want to write down exactly what was asked because I couldn't find a good recent thread.
Call 1 (PMM): Intro, logistics, confirm I was open to hybrid in Mountain View (dealbreaker question for some roles) Why Intuit, why now: this one matters. Generic answers get noticed. I talked about their Tax side specifically and the complexity of explaining financial products to non-experts, which resonated. Walk me through your background, focusing on your last two roles "What's a product you've marketed that you're most proud of and why?" Salary range question, right on the call. They asked me first. I gave a range and they confirmed it was in-band. Timeline: are you interviewing elsewhere, when could you start?
Call 2 (Content Strategy): Very similar but they added: "What's your experience working with cross-functional partners in product and engineering?" (Intuit is very cross-team, this matters) A light question about AI writing tools and how I think about using them in my workflow. Current, expected this.
The recruiter was friendly and it felt conversational rather than evaluative. But the why-Intuit question is real, they notice if you say something generic like "I admire the mission." Show you know what team you're joining and what their actual product challenge is.
Timeline after the screen: One week to the hiring manager call, then about 3 weeks total to the onsite. The PMM role moved faster than the content role.
Happy to answer anything about the PMM loop in particular.
