I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Nutanix in Apr 2019
Interview
This was my second interview with a different team in April 2019. I was excited since the recruiter told me that, there will be only one technical interview and one behavioral round. But, even after my interview went fairly good, I did not proceed for the second round. That's just plain bad luck. This is what I hate about companies judging the candidates for just a single mistake.
Only mistake I made was in the second question where the interviewer was not clear in the question and hence, I was not clear in my answer.
Again, I think this company liked to interview candidates even they have the position filled up.
