Ryan Lin thought he had his post-Carnegie Mellon University plan figured out. He scored a software engineering internship at Intuit Inc. in summer 2023, after applying almost a year in advance. Part of the reason he jumped on the opportunity was because he heard they had a high return-offer rate.

But after his internship ended, that offer never materialized.

As someone who has mentored software interns, if you don't get an offer at the end, that means you sucked. Sorry. Of course outwardly we'll say something congratulating you on your successful internship or some nonsense but the fact is many interns got offers and you didn't.

The article popped up for me again and I found this website. Im the guy you are talking about in the article lol. Fact is none of the software engineer interns got return offers. The entire internship program dragged us with "new updates coming soon!" for months and months. It really was just market conditions.

There have been some good signs though. After Intuit laid off 1800 people, there were some spaces open for new grads and most of the past interns got some team matching interviews, myself included. It only happened a full year after though (so recently).
