Round: Test
Experience: I got pre placement offer from the company after doing a 10 week internship there. The placement procedure was the same as that done for internship. There were 4 stages. The first one was the written test followed by a group activity. The shortlisted candidates were divided into groups and had to come up with a solution for a given problem statement. This was a no elimination round

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: All candidates had to go through a technical interview. The type of questions asked depended on one's strengths and the interviewer.

General Tips: Dress appropriately but comfortably and look confident even if you are not. Do not hesitate while answering questions. Even if you are not sure if the answer is entirely correct, attempting is important. Be active in the group activity. Try acting as the team leader. This gets you noticed.
Intuit has given importance to out of the box thinking. Answer questions in your own way as long as you have a good explanation for why you are right. They prefer unexpected answers especially for the HR round.
The overall experience was really good especially because the recruiters were friendly and systematic.
