Process

I met Nutanix at a campus career fair and had a great recruiter follow up afterward.

Then, I was given a "project" to build a UI feature using a large dataset.

Following that, I had an interview with the hiring manager, where I shared information about myself and was asked "out-of-the-box" questions to test my creativity and problem-solving abilities.

Lastly, I had an on-site, 4.5-hour interview day at HQ with five interviewers from the team. Each interviewer asked different questions, ranging from data structures and scalability to syntax knowledge.

I found the questions to be, on average, fairly difficult.
