cultural fit.
Further, prospects also cannot have an ulterior agenda; they must care about the customer.
How we hire
In regards to internal growth, Intacct tries to promote growth from current employees. There is a lot of lateral movement within the company, and we plan to continue awarding quality employees with growth opportunities and promotions for a job well done.
We also use a number of unique recruiting efforts. Roughly one third of Intacct’s hires come from employee referrals. We have found that Intacct employees refer those who they truly believe would be a great fit, and those they want to work with, and we look to find advocates within the company to help us recruit the right talent. Ensuring that a candidate is a cultural fit and sees the value of customercentricity is incredibly important during our hiring efforts.
Intacct is consistently hiring and typically has about 35 positions open at any given time. Most entry-level positions are filled by millennials as Intacct is especially focused on pursuing those with 0-3 years of work experience for sales positions. Intacct is actively targeting sophomores, juniors, and seniors in college nearby and has approximately a 50 percent conversion rate on interns. In other departments and roles, like product marketing or engineering for example, candidates often need to return to school after the internship is over, yet Intacct tries to maintain a relationship with them and recruit them for full time roles once their schooling is complete.
Intacct also recently started a Path Forward program. This is a 16-week paid returnship for experienced professionals who have left the workforce for care-giving and are looking for an opportunity to reestablish their careers. Path Forward is open to anyone who has at least five years of professional work experience and has also been out of workforce for a minimum of two years due to caring for a dependent.

In preparation for continued headcount expansion, two years ago Intacct moved to an office of three floors in downtown San Jose and was at 60 percent capacity. Those three floors are now full and Intacct will be expanding to another new floor to handle the added growth we’ve experienced. Additionally, Intacct is also looking to add additional new buildings in India and Romania!
Intacct is proud to have built an outstanding, award-winning culture that enables employees to grow in their career, collaborate together, and drive exceptional results for our customers while allowing them to maintain a healthy life balance outside of work.
