J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez Oracle (Austin, TX)
Entretien
Sometime in November, I was cold emailed by a recruiter on Handshake to apply for OCI. I completed a 1-hour technical screening, which was followed by a "Superday Interview" two weeks later. This interview involved three back-to-back interviews with both behavioral and technical questions.
After this I had to ask for a response, in which my recruiter told me that they did not like the results, but wanted to give me a second chance since I had not been given a chance to do one of their prep sessions. I completed a prep session, plus an hour-long one-on-one prep, in which they emphasized that the behavioral interviews are values-heavy. They rescheduled for another Superday in January, until they informed me (a day beforehand) that they had just filled all of their spots for OCI.
However, the recruiter was polite enough to suggest other teams to me. I applied to Corporate Architecture. A week later I only did a one-hour technical interview with two managers (belonging to different teams) before I was congratulated that they were working on an offer.
Finally, another week later, while they were still working on the offer, I decided to accept an offer elsewhere.
Questions d'entretien [2]
Question 1
Describe a project that you worked on and sketch out its design.
1 technical phone screen covering basic networking and data structures, followed by a 4-round onsite loop focused heavily on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) scale challenges. The rounds were split between low-level system execution, multi-tenant cloud architecture, and standard relational/non-relational database trade-offs. The interviewers kept drilling into network virtualization, hypervisors, and storage layers.
To prep, I needed to brush up on high-throughput cloud networking patterns and storage engine internals. I utilized Apex Interviewer to simulate full cloud infrastructure design problems.

Question 1
Design a highly secure, multi-tenant virtual cloud network block storage migration system that allows live volume transfers between physical data centers without dropping active I/O operations.

Se divide en varias etapas, lo primero evalúan tu ingles, ya que es requisito para trabajar ahí, normalmente es solo una entrevista en ingles con preguntas sencillas, como cuál es tu actual trabajo, por qué quieres trabajar en Oracle, y normalmente es alguien de RH, después si pasas esa etapa viene la entrevista técnica en la que te preguntarán conceptos básicos, por ejemplo si es para java te preguntarán sobre herencia, polimorfismo, era entrevista puede ser en español o en ingles dependiendo si es alguien de aquí de México tu manager o si es del extranjero y posteriormente te pondrán problemas de algoritmos que tendrás que programar en el tiempo de la entrevista
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.
