I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Nutanix (Bengaluru) in Feb 2018
Interview
The telephonic round was about details of the projects I worked on which were based of Unix kernel and networking. The interviewer was good and focused on talking about details of the projects and asking questions around them. In, the next telephonic round I was asked to write a C program to find the continuous 5 set bits in a bit stream. Then there was generic discussion about the projects I have worked on. In the third telephonic round I was about approach of parallelizing tcp/ip stack. After the 3 telephonic round, I wasn't invited for further discussion.

Question 1
In a stream of bits as input (one byte at a time), write a C program to find 5 contiguous 1's.
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.
