There was an initial screening call where I was evaluated to see what positions I was the best fit for across the family of companies. I had already done this myself on their website and applied to the appropriate position, so it didn't change much for me.

There was then another phone screen for the specific position, with standard questions. They will also throw in some behavioral questions in these phone screens, so be prepared for that. I was then sent an online coding exercise, which involved general algorithmic problems of the type you would see on interview prep sites.

After that, there was a phone interview which was a conference call with multiple engineers. We talked about previous experience, etc.

Finally, there was an on-site interview which was also with several team members at once. I was worried that this type of format might be more intimidating, but it really wasn't. There were some technical questions, but many of the questions focused on passion for software, side projects, and interests. They seem to put a lot of weight on this. On the spectrum of aptitude versus knowledge, I would say that Quicken definitely cares more about knowledge. They seemed focused a lot on the way I had done things in the past, which I felt was mostly irrelevant since I was applying to a new job, not my old one.

One frustrating aspect of the process was that the recruiters seemed to not want to do any business via email, and only communicated by phone. This would be fine if they didn't insist on working the same hours as those they are recruiting. I can easily read and respond to emails from my desk, but I cannot take calls about other jobs. This is a big deal if you work in an office and have a 5-10 minute walk to find a private area to make these calls. So there ended up being a lot of unnecessary phone tag, and I almost just gave up a couple times. This wasn't an issue with other companies, as they all use email.

Questions about my primary programming language, OOP, design patterns, passion questions (side projects have you worked on? Are you working on any? What technologies are you excited about? What programming languages have you learned in your free time? What's your opinion on current trends in the industry, etc.)
