I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Intuit (Remote, OR) in Dec 2014
Interview
Inverview is with two managers. Generally they tell you about the job, benefits, advancement opportunities, benefits and a little about themselves. You are then asked about yourself, your experience, and situational questions that help them see how you would handle working with customers in a call center type environment. Interviewers were very friendly which made interview less stressful. Interview over the phone lasted an hour and a half.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Intuit (Woodland Hills, CA) in Nov 2011
Interview
It was a phone screening firstly by the recruiter, followed by technical phone interview couple of days later. Then four rounds of technical interview onsite, followed by discussions with the hiring manager after couple of days. This was followed by rounds of negotiations with the recruiter. The entire process was smooth and the recruiter always kept me in loop.
