Software Engineering Intern

May - August 2018 • Mountain View, CA

What I liked

I loved the culture and people. Everyone was invested in helping me learn new things. They also had me work on projects that didn’t feel like busy work, so I felt like my work was meaningful. On my 3rd day I had already written code that went to production for thousands of customers.

What I wish was different

I wish they had informed me my location and team placement earlier, but it all worked out great in the end.

Software Engineering Intern

June - August 2019 • Mountain View, CA

What I liked

Interning as a front-end engineer at Intuit was a fantastic experience. Intuit truly values personal growth both as an engineer and as a person. My team was willing to spend time teaching me whatever was needed. As an intern, I was able to push products to production for millions of customers to use. I was challenged to learn as much as possible and ended up learning new front-end frameworks, Intuit's A/B testing platform, and how to build a widget from scratch. Additionally, Intuit made the experience super fun by giving its interns cars for the summer, holding an Intern Summit, and (nearly weekly) events that benefited and were fun for all of the employees!

What I wish was different

I wish that Intuit was based in San Francisco rather than Mountain View. I didn't love the South Bay.

Advice

As an intern, you're thrown into a company with a lot of moving parts. I would recommend making a conscious effort to get to know as many people, teams, tools, and groups as possible. Try to have a coffee chat with someone, at least once a week! And don't be afraid to attend any events or workshops, even if you have no experience in that area!

Getting to be as part of the team, and not working on a separate intern side project. This helped me gain experience on how to work as part of a team

Software Engineer

January 2017 • Mountain View, CA

What I liked

I loved how Intuit was able to host an info session with Intuit. Was able to stand out as an applicant amongst a sea of graduate students.

What I wish was different

Though I was fortunate enough to stick out amongst graduate students, many of my peers were unaware of info session happening outside of the career fair. Reaching out to the computer science club could go a long way in getting the news out there.

Advice

Whiteboard interview preparation cannot be rushed. I took time everyday for two months to prepare for my interviews so when the right employer came along, I was ready to hit it out of the park.

Software Engineering Intern

June - September 2022 • Mountain View, CA

What I liked

I had an amazing internship experience at Intuit. I learned a ton about software development and contributed to the project. My mentor helped me every step of the way. Also, I had plenty of time to learn new technologies.

What I wish was different

Advice

I would advise people to work hard during their internship for two reasons: 1. It's your time to learn and contribute as much as you can. 2. You want to show your best self to the manager and the team, so they would recommend hiring you for a full time.

Software Engineering Intern

May - August 2023 • Plano, TX

What I liked

I went through two technical rounds, one of them was online assessment and another was a face-to-face interview. The interview process was smooth

What I wish was different

The company ghosted me after 2 rounds. Absolutely no idea what they are up to with my application. I event texted the recruiter on Handshake and I didn't hear back from them. Shameful for such a big company.

Advice

They have taken interviews, but then ghosted me afterwards. When we invest so much of time and effort for their interviews, this is very unprofessional for such a big company. I even texted the recruiter, but no response.

Email Marketing Intern

May 2019 • Atlanta, GA

What I liked

Everything about this job was amazing! I love working at Mailchimp! It is an inclusive environment that harbors creativity and independence. The benefits, people, work place environment, culture, and free food are all great! The company supports the underdog and has exceptional corporate citizenship, alongside being transparent with employees and customers. I would definitely retire here!

What I wish was different

There is a lot of fun stuff happening often, so you can get easily distracted. The monthly cost of parking in the primary deck is pretty expensive .

Advice

Get to know as many people as you can. Building your network is the biggest advantage that you can have when trying to move up in the company. Before you even apply, make sure that you understand the company values and can align yourself with our relaxed work culture.
