I underwent a screening interview followed by a technical first round. Later, I participated in a superday that featured both a behavioral interview and an additional technical interview as part of the selection process.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Oracle (Redwood Shores, CA) in Nov 2023
Interview
Phone screen, followed by a technical interview conducted by a junior engineer, followed by a technical and behavioral interview with the manager of the team. I asked the recruiter if they needed anything else, and the manager had more he wanted to ask, so I did an additional follow-up interview with him that was about 30 minutes.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
The first interview was basically just Degree of Array (LeetCode 697) and a lot of general knowledge questions about programming and Java (what is encapsulation, what is a class, what is inheritance, etc.). The former was through an online interview, live-coding software (don't recall which one), and the latter was verbal.
Design a relational database for a school. They also asked me to think of SQL queries that might be used to fetch certain data based on my design. I didn't have to write them down, just verbalise them. We did this on a Zoom whiteboard.
How would you upload a large file to a database? Write pseudocode for the insertion script. We did this in my local code editor, with me sharing the screen.
smooth interview process, very insightful and had great discussions about the sales industry and working under high pressure. The first round is competency. The focus was cold calls, role play, compentency, and skill based.
