I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2018
Interview
I was referred for the position and a manager contacted me directly. The initial briefing round went really well. Very friendly and I was briefed on the team, the technologies and the next round. The next round was technical, the interviewer was very helpful, gave a clear problem statement and answered all my queries. I was then told that I would get a call for the next round and I never did. I mailed them a week later and I received a reply 3 weeks after that, asking me to contact the university hire recruiter without giving me a POC. I was royally ghosted after that. The manager and the technical interviewer were very nice, but the entire process is NOT worth it.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Spiral matrix (circular matrix) with a dry-run with their input followed by an explanation of how the code works and its efficiency.
Mostly coding question focused, and some talking about personal experience and terms. Some technical design, you could have chosen any language to complete the coding questions. Questions were simple technical concepts that person came up with at the moment.
