I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Nutanix (San Jose, CA) in Apr 2015
Interview
I met Nutanix at a campus career fair, and had a great recruiter follow up after that. Then, I was given a "project" to build a UI feature given a large data set. Following that, I had a interview with the hiring manager to let me him know about myself, and was asked "out of the box" questions to test my creativity and problem solving ability. Lastly, I had an on-site 4.5 hr interview day at HQ with 5 interviewers from the team. Each interviewer asked different questions ranging from data structures, to scalability, syntax knowledge, etc. I found the questions to be on average fairly difficult.

Question 1
In html and css only build me a moving red block and animate it across the screen
Interview was pretty straightforward and direct. I had an online assesement, and then there is a recruiter screen and three rounds of onsite technical interview. The recruiter screen was just about getting to know yours goals and interest
They sent me an email saying I'm "part of the very first group of candidates being considered for our brand‑new Vancouver office". I sent two follow-ups and never received a response. Three weeks later, they sent me a rejection email without even giving me that initial interview they said they would.
This is the first round and it was a coding round. They asked two questions in hacker rank and an interviewer was there. Interviewer asked about the approach initially and they also gave hints when stuck.
