I applied online, completed a HackerRank challenge, and was brought onsite for a first-round interview with two engineers.

The questions were standard, and both had been mentioned before for Pure Storage.

The interviewers were really friendly, and the process felt more like a conversation than an interview.

I was invited back for a final-round interview with the team I was interested in joining. The questions were a bit harder, and a few of them were different from anything I'd been asked before.

Again, the interviewers were more interested in my thought process and problem-solving ability than in judging how well I wrote code on the whiteboard.

I felt like I really learned a lot just through interviewing.

All the interviewers had only good things to say about the company and culture, and I could tell it was an excellent place to work.

The recruiters were very accommodating of my schedule and other deadlines, and I received an offer the next day.

I would definitely recommend Pure Storage for anyone looking for interesting work, an excellent culture, and competitive benefits.

I can't talk about specific questions because of an NDA. The interviewers asked a lot of questions about concurrency and multithreading.

There was also a systems design question and a question related to the Quickselect algorithm.

Finally, a few of the standard Pure Storage questions that have already been mentioned were included.

I thought all the questions were really unique and fun.
