I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Lehi, UT) in Feb 2015
Interview
Pretty simple over the phone interviews. Had 3 total interviews. One with my current manager, a technical interview, and an interview with one of the product Directors. The interviews were roughly 30-60 minutes each. First one was to get to know me and why I would like to work for Oracle, the second interview was to see what my strengths and weaknesses were and would I would like to improve on and how I thought the job would increase my career goals. Third interview was a technical one to see if I knew the basics of SQL and Linux and a few other things.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle (Kansas City, MO) in Jun 2025
Interview
kind people interviewed me and gave me some softball questions. It was the most stereotypical interview and surprisingly not really any technical questions. So yeah just be prepared to talk about your past experiences if you interview at this role.
