I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Redwood Shores, CA) in Dec 2015
Interview
1) Submitted my resume at a college career fair at the end of September. 2) Was contacted by a recruiter at the end of October, who requested to schedule an onsite interview in December at Oracle HQ. Oracle tends to interview candidates on Thursday, flew out on Wednesday night. 2) During the interview day, met with two project groups that were interested in my resume. Originally there were five project groups, but they likely filled their spots before I had arrived onsite. Met directly with the hiring managers for about an hour each, interview questions will vary greatly between project groups. 3) Heard back from the recruiter 3-4 days later.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Basic questions about BFS, DFS, hash tables, and JSON files

Technical phone screen, then onsite. Onsite was 3 separate interviews. Questions were average difficulty. I recommend studying leetcode so you are knowledgeable about DSA. I heard back next day with my offer.
The interview consisted of three technical rounds and one HR round, covering OS, DBMS, projects, internship experience, favorite data structures, linked lists, trees, TSP, OOPs concepts, Spring Boot, and Python libraries.
