I applied to Intuit via a referral. Recruiter reached out in a day and said they would like to start the process for Software Engineer 2
Process consisted of 5 rounds.

Round1: OA ( 30 mins)
Section 1 consisted of total 5 MCQs If i remeber correctly, on DBMS queries, Design Patterns and Java
Section 2 consisted of one coding question: https://leetcode.com/problems/palindrome-linked-list/
It was fairly simple and was able to do it in 10 mins.

Round 2: Phone Interview (60 mins)
This round was taken by SDE2. She was an amazing interviewer. Easy to talk to and genuinely interested in taking my interview.
We spent first 10 mins in introductions and current projects. And then I was told to solve the following problem
https://leetcode.com/problems/convert-sorted-list-to-binary-search-tree/
I hadn't solved this problem before but had solved Converting Sorted Array to BST so I told I will start of with by converting this linked list to an array and will apply the recursive way of constructing the tree. She was happy with this solution but asked me to not use array and do all the operations I am doing in O(1) space. I managed to do it but interviewer had to give me a hint. In the end I wrote a working solution and was able to dry run it as well.
I had a feeling this interview went well but was unsure what the verdict would be as Interviewer had to give a hint.

Received call from recruiter after 3 days that feedback is positive but is on fence and I will have to do well in my further rounds. All the further rounds happened after a week on a single day within 3 hours.

Round 3: Craft Demo ( 60 mins )
Problem statement was shared to me 2 days before the interview and was asked to write a module which helps in determining the Top K Scorers in a game. This is more like a take home assignment that is given to you and you have to come up with a low level design of the entire problem statement. More like Machine Coding. I got to know from Intuit employees that they focus a lot on this round so had to do well here.
I created the entire low level design along with presentation too ( not necessary but good to have )
I was able to present well to the panel and I was able to answer most of the questions that they had.

Round 4: DSA ( 45 mins)
I was asked the below problem:
https://leetcode.com/problems/intersection-of-two-linked-lists/
Then I was asked variation of https://leetcode.com/problems/house-robber-iii/
Overall this went good and it seemed interviewers were satisfied with whatever solutions I proposed. Interviewers were happy to answer any questions I had.

Round 5: HM ( 45 mins )
Standard Behavioural Questions related to conflict, working in a team, why leaving VMware, why Intuit etc

Ended up receiving the offer after 2 business days. Overall my experience with Intuit was +ve and interviewers were great and helpful.
