I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Seattle, WA) in Sept 2019
Interview
The best interview experience in years. They were professional, intellectual and personal instead of just throwing hard questions at you and dismiss you. They genuinely had interest in who I was and my experiences I have over the last 20 years. Of course, there were technical questions, so if you want the job, be prepared as I did.
The interview started at 9:30 AM. Every one hour, different person from the team interviewed me and I met with 5 different interviewers. Most of them were from the team I was applying for.
The hiring process took a long time due to some internal issues there but I patiently waited, so hiring process improvement is desired, but overall experience has been very positive.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was your most difficult obstacle in your career and how did you get over it?
Initial recruiter call is about 30 minutes and walks you through the entire interview process. Received the link to schedule the next round interview after one week.
Technical interview wasn't difficult, pretty standard coding challenge.
Got ghosted after interview.
I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Guadalajara, Jalisco) in Jan 2025
Interview
Fueron 4 entrevistas, dos de ellas fueron técnicas y las demás con RH. Bastante sencilla la entrevista con problemas de algoritmos fáciles de manipulación de Strings, Listas, POO, preguntas de bases de datos como Joins, una fue en Python y la otra forzosamente en Java. Todas tuvieron una parte para poner a prueba el inglés, 1 semana después de la última entrevista recibí mi oferta.
