Recruiter reached out to me via LinkedIn, and another reached out per an internal referral. I advised both of the mutual outreach, and it was agreed I would meet with one and they would share notes with each other. The recruiter I spoke with wasn’t very warm on the phone. Because I’m a transparent and genuine person, I always like to be personable and ask those I connect with about their own time at the company just out of curiosity and to create an introductory connection, but she sort of just cut me off and asked where I was located. Then she proceeded to ask me more behavioral style questions, and not anything remotely related to my expertise or background, or why I was interested in the role (that I am VERY qualified for) at Intuit. She then advised that she would share notes with her colleague and if they didn’t get back to me later this week, then to reach back out. I followed up twice, total blow off, no response from either. Totally unprofessional to ghost a solid candidate in this way, particularly one with legitimate credentials. What some of these folks don’t realize is that the business world is small and when you behave in this manner, you are disparaging not only yourself, but the brand of the company you represent. Super unfortunate.

I was interviewed by a very rude woman who certainly put me off applying for any roles at Intuit in future, which is a shame as it seems to be a great company. I've never experienced this before as I've always found Talent people to be friendly and helpful. She was really awful. No information about the role or organisation, straight into a series of direct questions delivered in an angry, impatient way, putting me down several times. Her command of the English language is pretty bad too... It was quite a shock.
