I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle (Bengaluru) in Oct 2023
Interview
The interview was for SSE - Full stack python development. Had four rounds- 1. Technical : Leetcode easy question 2. Technical with 3 interviewers- Each interviewer was asking questions based on different fields: 1. Python 2. Kubernetes 3. Data Visualisation and Interpretation 3. TechnoManagerial Round - Manager of the team which I was supposed to join came. Asked a question on HLD of an e-commerce platform. Then some questions based on past experiences 4. Director Round - A person from US took this round. He was in a hurry and finished the interview very quickly. After all four rounds the HR gave positive feedback and I also felt confident about my chances and suddenly HR comes back with some BS about the later rounds being average from my side which was completely different from what she was saying after each round. Felt disappointed in such a big MNC doing this.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Oracle (New York, NY) in Jun 2026
Interview
The role was for a Senior Software Engineer (Data Engineering Oracle Health). A recruiter reached out via LinkedIn and provided a link to apply. After submitting my application, I was scheduled for an initial screening call to discuss my experience and background.
The recruiter screen primarily focused on high-level role fit and basic behavioral questions. Following that, I was invited to a technical interview.
The technical interview was a 1-hour coding session conducted via HackerRank, featuring a LeetCode-style problem. The first ~10 minutes were dedicated to behavioral questions, after which we moved on to the coding challenge. Candidates were allowed to use their preferred programming language.
