Interviewed Jan 2012 in Burlington, MA (took 4+ weeks)
Oracle college recruiting HR contacted me stating that I had been selected to explore employment opportunities with Oracle (I did my undergraduate in electrical engineering). I interviewed with several different groups on the phone and was flown out for an on-site interview with said groups. There were a few technical questions (transmission line/EM theory, fourier transforms, etc.) to see what I knew, but they mainly asked behavioral based questions/to explain my resume. It was basically to see if I was a match for what the groups were looking for; they already seemed to know I was competent, which was really refreshing. The building was fantastic, the people were very, very smart and friendly, there was free juice/soda/coffee/tea for all employees, and there were no cubicles - just offices! I got a formal offer for a hardware engineer position - board design - about one week later.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
The offer exceeded my expectations, so I did not negotiate. Since the company is so large, there is little room to negotiate benefits, bonuses, etc.
Other Details
I got the interview through a College or University and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview and a Background Check.

Interview was based on testing my abilities in JAVA. Rather than judging my JAVA skills, they started judging my attitude and how I talk to people.

You have to 'prove' your level of contribution to justify your base salary. It's not necessarily up to the hiring manager him/herself to decide, but HR.

Interviewed May 2011 (took 2 months)
After an extensive interview process that took over two months to complete, I was offered the job. The offer was presented to me down to salary, bonus, benefits, etc. I asked for the offer in writing and was told that the written offer would be available when I needed to sign documents right before I started. I was given a target start date. When that day came and went, I stayed in close contact with management. Three months after receiving the offer, I was told that the position was not actually funded. I wanted to post this experience as a warning to others...DO NOT QUIT your existing job until the last possible minute and be a little leary on the Oracle job offers.

Negotiation Details
Sal is below my expectations but considering I would get to do meaningful work and i get my preferred location, i accepted the offer. Its difficult to negotiate with the hiring team. They will go to an extent where they state that you can look out for a different company.. but we will give you only this much sal..

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Bangalore (India) (took a day)
I have applied for it through a job portal.The position is actually for 3-7years experience.I was little surprised when i got a call from the HR(3 PM) since my experience is 2+ years.First round interview was scheduled by 6PM. Around 4 -5 people were there.I was asked some basic questions in ORACLE related to DBA role like Flashback,rman,dataguard.Then second round of interview was scheduled by 8 PM. One person took the interview,It started well but i couldnt answer few questions about 11g features ,active dataguard and partitioning. After that arounf 11PM i got a call from that team lead and it was more a casual talk and finally he said their recruitment team will contact me soon. After going through some reviews posted here im not expecting an offer. But would be happy to get one though.
