I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Bengaluru) in Jan 2013
Interview
Interview included 5 rounds with one technical face-to-face, 3 telephonic rounds from US/UK, and last HR round.
Selection process is damn slow, the approval goes till 4th level in management (like Senior Director level), My process took 2 months but I have seen my colleagues processing taking as long as an year!
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Oracle
Interview
Techical - specific to job requirements. Questions ask are highly technical and gauges your skills if you are appropriate for the job. Also I was laid off from the same company but they called me to place me into a similar position which is weird.

Interview
Phone screen followed by onsite. The onsite had one manager and 5 technical people on the team. Lots of behavioral questions and coding. The manager had no business asking coding questions (he was non-technical), but did anyway.
