      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      29 May 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Redwood Shores, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Redwood Shores, CA) in Apr 2014

      Interview

      I scheduled a phone interview shortly after applying online. The interview consisted of questions regarding previous experience, interests, and my availability for an on-site interview at Oracle HQ. At the on-site interview, I met with the hiring manager and four principal engineers. In each interview, I was asked about previous experience and/or provided challenges. The challenges were standard white board coding problems. Overall, I found the communication skills of the interviewers to be below par. The manager being the worst and the carried over to the post-interview process. After the on-site interview, I received no further communication from the hiring manager. After two weeks, I reached out to ask about expense reimbursement and whether I was still being considered for the position. The manager seemed put off by the question and responded with a curt email that directed me to a FAQ document. That document, mind you, states that you should reach out to the hiring manager for questions regarding expense reimbursement. Once I explained that to the manager, he had me email him the receipts. Note, however, he never address the other question regarding consideration for the position. That's fine, I thought. I'll ask again later. Four weeks pass with no communication from the hiring manager and no expense reimbursement. I email the manager asking for an update on the reimbursement and the position. Finally, I learn that I am no longer being considered for the position. Now, one could assume that from the lack of contact. However, I feel it was disrespectful to say nothing after having me come out to Oracle HQ and spend a day with the team. Regarding reimbursement, he didn't have any answers. I asked for a contact within Oracle HR for his team and he all but refused to provide one. After getting the run around via several correspondences, I called Oracle's main number and was transferred to the HR hotline. After a few minutes of waiting, the system put me into voice mail. I left my contact information and a brief explanation of the problem with reimbursement and the manager. I am now waiting for a response.

      Question 1

      None of the questions stood out as particularly difficult. Unfortunately, what I remember is the communications problems, not the content of the interviews.

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Oracle (New York, NY) in Jun 2026

      Interview

      The role was for a Senior Software Engineer (Data Engineering Oracle Health). A recruiter reached out via LinkedIn and provided a link to apply. After submitting my application, I was scheduled for an initial screening call to discuss my experience and background. The recruiter screen primarily focused on high-level role fit and basic behavioral questions. Following that, I was invited to a technical interview. The technical interview was a 1-hour coding session conducted via HackerRank, featuring a LeetCode-style problem. The first ~10 minutes were dedicated to behavioral questions, after which we moved on to the coding challenge. Candidates were allowed to use their preferred programming language.
