# Intuit Recruitment Process and Eligibility

Intuit hires new grads for Software Engineer roles through a selective, product-company process. It starts with a recruiter screen and a HackerRank online assessment (DSA plus SQL and scripting), followed by multiple technical interviews covering data structures, algorithms and design. The bar is high and closer to product-company standards than mass IT services.
