I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle (Santa Clara, CA) in Sept 2008
Interview
I was referred in by an employee who spoke highly of Oracle and thought I would fit in. While every large company has its issues with beaurocracy and politics, the people I met seemed to cut to the chase and, as long as you're in HQ, you can get involved in strategy and larger decisions. People worked hard and were in the office late.
The interviews focused on what I had done and was interested in doing and determining whether it would be a good fit. I felt like they were very interested in cultural fit which was a positive but the all the questions were very simple and didn't really focus on my capabilities and problem-solving capability.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle in Jul 2023
Interview
I applied for a role at Oracle. A recruiter reached out, and we set up a time to connect. Believing that the conversation went well, I was informed I would receive feedback the following week. I did not hear back from the recruiter for the next week, so I did a follow-up email. It wasn't until three weeks later that I received an AUTOMATED email saying that the company would not proceed with my candidacy. Indeed, it has been the most unprofessional experience that I have experience. Going from a recruiter call to ghosting to receiving an automated rejection email is quite amateurish.
