I applied through college or university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Oracle in Nov 2014
Interview
Rather non-technical really... to the point that it makes me question their hiring process and the caliber of the people I'd be working with at this corporation. Most companies I know of that hire decent people vet them through a series of interviews. I literally just had one in-person ~somwhat technical interview (design a system, no coding). They were nice enough to fly me out to san jose for the interview so I'd say overall the experience was positive.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain how you'd design a large scale cloud system. What things would you take into account, scalabilty, backups, sharding, etc. I told him what I knew from my limited experience of scaling, and he helped me out in certain places.
Mostly coding question focused, and some talking about personal experience and terms. Some technical design, you could have chosen any language to complete the coding questions. Questions were simple technical concepts that person came up with at the moment.

Something like searching in logs using maps and filter/find data
decent amount of DSA and System design were asked, and behavioral questions. so prepare leetcode level questions and good amount knowledge in sql, java and also mostly oracle sql. overall it was good
First online assessment. Then 2 interview rounds + 1 hr round. This was during campus placement. In interviews they mainly asked about dsa, os concepts, logical questions and some system design questions also.
