So recently I applied for Intuit SDE 1 role for 2024 grads via referral.
On 10th July I got OA link and I solved all 5 problems.Some of the problems I had seen before. I think they were repeated.
So I had my first round scheduled on 16 July on call with HR.
Intuit was not that interested in informing interview details, time before 15th night. So I was informed my interview will be at 8 Am.
I joined the interview. The interviewer asked my introduction and then gave me a DSA problem on glider.
DSA is the thing I am confident about myself but that day it backfired. It was some counting problem to calculate number of diff types of combinations. I was trying to approach it using basic mathematical counting and loops. Interviewer guided me very well and gave me a lot of hints. After a lot of hardwork on that problem I was finally able to solve it. But I realized I had ruined my interview already.
Then interviewer asked some questions from my resume and oops, dbms , and operating systems.
I answered all of them. I believe they were correct and interviewer was satisfied.
On 22nd July I received a mail stating I wasn’t moving forward in process. Felt really bad as this was a good chance to increase my current CTC to around 1.5 times.
Lets see if I get any chance in future.
Any tips on improvement like how to manage interview preps along with job n all.
