I applied through university. I interviewed at Oracle
Interview
They asked plenty of questions pertaining Oracle and your experience. They want you to be able to speak clearly and with authority. You can not be soft spoken. You must do your research about Oracle and sell why your a great fit.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Oracle (Utrecht) in Mar 2014
Interview
Had multiple meetings, the last one including manager NL, all positive! After 3 weeks it was still quiet! After I made a phone call the message was: there is a hire freeze. I would advise clear communication from the beginning.
