I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle (Minneapolis, MN) in Mar 2010
Interview
initial contact was with former co-worker after seeing posting for position. after applying, contacted by inside recruiter, once cleared that hurdle, spoke with the hiring manager via phone, received the offer within 2 weeks
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most annoying thing was the background check used in the hiring process, very cumbersome/slow and not accurate
2 rounds of technical - They will ask all the technical questions based on your resume. Quite difficult
1 Manager Round - They will ask technical questions and managerial questions
There was 2 technical interview and one managerial round. L1 round was with some Java coding using stream and theoretical questions and L2 round was more about the scenario based questions
Interview mostly they will ask the basics but from each and every topic for Oracle DBA like configuration, architecture, RMAN, EXP/IMP, Performance Tuning, RAC, Golden Gate, Exadata and Cloud platform question etc.
