One thing is common in every round. Each and every interviewer asks questions related to job profile and tried to test my knowledge related to skill set needed to job.
And they are very helpful. You need to prepare based on job profile and the things mentioned in your resume.
over all it was nice experience.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Nutanix (Vancouver, BC) in Jul 2026
Interview
Screening call -- Pretty straight forward discussing roles, responsibilities and how the interview process would look like from there onwards.
Preliminary F2F interview -- Mixture of networking & coding round. Mainly concentrated on previous experience and few basic concepts. This was concluded by a simple coding problem related to binary trees.
I was ill prepared and most of my answers were half right and I couldn't clear this round.
Nevertheless, both the HR & interviewer were friendly and interaction was smooth.
If I had cleared this round then I would have faced 2 more core interview rounds, followed by Hiring manager and lastly HR round.

Round 1: Screening- Two coding questions, one easy and another medium to hard level coding question, both of which I solved. Basic questions on Python and Kubernetes.
Round 2: Technical (Face-to-face)-2 to 3 Coding questions of medium level. Scenario based questions according to profile. It went on for another hour.
Round 3: Technical(Face-to-Face)- Real life based problems asked including some questions on Algorithms.
Round 4: Behavioral(Face-to-Face) It went on for 2 hrs. Questions mostly on previously done work and revolve around how much understanding and experience you had in past.
All the interviewers were friendly and welcoming. I instantly loved the culture when I walked into their office. It was my dream company and I got selected :)
