I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2019
Interview
I applied online. The process took 2+ weeks. The first round was technical screening and I was asked Binary Tree related question. Next, I was called for on-site interview. On-site interview had 4 rounds (3 Technical + 1 behavioral). Overall interview experience was horrible. I waited for almost an hour at the reception before someone came and took me for interview. I paid all the interview expenses out of my pocket and the reimbursement was never given. It's been almost 2 months and I have been following up with the OCI travel team every alternative day and never received any response. Every time I contact the team, I get an automatic reply. If you are interviewing with OCI team, PLEASE TALK ABOUT YOUR REIMBURSEMENTS BEFORE HAND.

1 technical phone screen covering basic networking and data structures, followed by a 4-round onsite loop focused heavily on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) scale challenges. The rounds were split between low-level system execution, multi-tenant cloud architecture, and standard relational/non-relational database trade-offs. The interviewers kept drilling into network virtualization, hypervisors, and storage layers.
To prep, I needed to brush up on high-throughput cloud networking patterns and storage engine internals. I utilized Apex Interviewer to simulate full cloud infrastructure design problems.
