The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle (New York, NY)
Interview
There was a two phone interviews and all fay full loop with various people in the group. This position was in the OCI team. The group made a big distinction that they were better than Oracle classic and operated much better.
However, the recruiting experience was a mess. There was wrong information by the recruiting team, the night before before the interview it was suddenly change to online format without notice. The interviewer did not even give me time to goto take a bathroom break in between sessions. The interviewer were very unprofessional and asked very junior questions. Furthermore, interviewers only asked questions that had more than one answer but could not realize get over themselves with failed to recognized more robust answers based on experience. This was more apparent after I asked what they thought about the solution.
OCI group thought they operated better than Amazon and MSFT. I beg to differ based on this interviewing experience. I have found that interview experience is indicative of the overall company. OCI interview experience was poor and therefore I have no doubt the rumors about OCI are true.
Overall, non inspiring, confusing, and awkward interviewing process.
8 rounds long most people were nice but some were pretty rude and didn't want to be there. Took way too long and time committment but I guess that meant I was in the final round but still was a huge investment of time.
The interview process consists of 5 rounds with cross-functional peers, each focusing on specific aspects of the role. Candidates will answer questions using the STAR format, describing Situation, Task, Action, and Result, to showcase their experiences and skills.
