Hii, few months back I completed Intuit's swe intern interview conducted on-campus (NSUT-Delhi).
I'll be sharing my experience:
It consisted of total 3 rounds - OA, and two technical interviews.

OA:

OA was conducted on campus in a proctored enviroment on glider (coding platform). OA has 4 questions - easy to hard.
One was a simple prefix sum (where my dumbass applied segment tree, tho passed all the test cases).
one was a standard heap question of finding median in a data stream,
One was a direct leetcode question "Alien dictionary" and one was a dungeon game question where we had a grid containing numbers that contains how many health points will a guy get if he enters this cell. I had to output the minimum health required to start the game so that throughout the progress (from 0,0 to n-1,n-1) health would'nt go negetive. I did it using BFS+binary search.

I basically did all the questions and the shortlist was released a week later and I made it to the interviews. 16 students made it to the interviews.

Interviews:

We were told that interviews will be conducted in a virtual mode in the TnP building for proctoring purposes.

Technical Interview 1: My first interview was very fun actually, interviewer introduced himself, I introduced myself, He started scanning my resume and asked me to explain the projects that I had on my resume. I did and few follow up questions were there about how did I save the vectors and like that(It was a ML project). 20mins passes by then he asked me which is my favourite cs core subject, I answered with OOPS. He bascially told me to tell him about OOPS from the very scratch till whatever I know. I was prepared very well for the OOPS part and the interviewer was impressed.
He furthur asked me questions on whether I had worked on some production level project or not and few other cs related questions.

Shortlist was sent shortly and 8 people were on the technical-round 2, and I was also one of them.

Technical Interview 2:
This round was focussed heavily on DSA part. Interviewer asked me to open glider and gave me question which was basically LRU cache and told me to implement it from scratch (writing main too).
I did it, had some error in first time, did some debugging and all the test cases he gave, passed clearly.

then he went on asking about types of constructors, destructors, heaps and how would one implement mutex (locks) because of the heavy incomming traffic, which I answered fairly.

Now he moved on to the OS side, asked me about scheduling algorithms, asked me about threads and the differences between the threads and processes. Why doesnt chrome crash if one of the tabs crashes out??

then we moved to the dbms part, They wrote a query, I was asked to improve it, I suggested using indexing (B+ Trees) but the interviewr was expecting views and I was not well brushed with views so I simply said I dont remember that well about views.
then he went on asking about dictionaries in the DBMS, Normalizations, caching and few other concepts.
I was not well with the dbms concepts so I was kind of dicy for my selection.

after few hours, around 7:28pm same day, Got the result.
FINAL RESULT - SELECTED.
they selected 4 students in total.
