I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle in Feb 2015
Interview
The recruiter contacted me about 2 weeks after I submitted application online(sent resume to an email address for internship). The recruiter asked for my updated resume and transcripts and then arranged a 5-minute phone chat with me. The phone chat is mainly about the overview of the internship and the interview process. And there is only one round phone interview for internship in Oracle. After a week, I was told to have an interview with a group and followed by another group one more week later. And got rejected an week after the second interview.
One interviewer is not patient at all and not nice as what other people said. Another is almost no emotional(I can not feel whether he is happy or not about the answer)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mostly are general behavior questions about the projects on the resume like:
1. what is your strength?
2. what is your weakness?
3. what's your hobby?
4. what do you think is the most challenge part in XX project?
5. what do you want to get from the internship?
tell me about But also some basic technical questions like:
1. tell me about some sorting algorithms you know?
2. how will you find out a bug in the program
I applied via a contact with a friend, heard back pretty quick. They questioned me a lot about my previous employers and very little about my abilities, which felt frustrating. I honed this skills that they seemed intent on ignoring. I wish the interview was more about the job at hand.

Question 1
What's one thing you would change about your previous work environment?
One call to schedule onsite days. And then just fly to SF for two-days onsite interview. I have four group to meet. They are located at HQ, Santa Clara, and Cupertino. The whole process was very smooth. HRs are very nice and the people who interviewed me are also very friendly. They didn't ask any challenging question. We talked about my background and what their group do for most of the process.
