I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Oracle (Vancouver, BC) in Aug 2017
Interview
I had 5 interviews for an internship position. One behavioral interview for 50 mins, then 3 times call back for 3 hours of technical interview with 3 project managers, They went pretty well and I've been able to answer all of the question and coding in a reasonable time. And then the last one for another technical interview, after that I have not heard about them any more, fortunately! I could say other than 2 of interviewers the others were impatient, along with the short notice interview request, where all of 5 interviews happened in around 7 days or less. For the last one, they sent me the request at 11:00 am for 1:00 pm interview the same day, in a way that either you do it or you will lose the job. I accept it, but after 10 mins of talking and considering impolite and impatient behaviour of the interviewer, I realized that this is not the type of people that I want to work with them, so intentionally I didn't answer two questions and end-up the call politely in less than 30 mins. They even have not send any decision letter or something similar to me.
Considering the fact this was for an Internship position, these behaviours were completely unreasonable.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Oracle in Mar 2012
Interview
I forwarded my resume through an employee referral. Contacted by hiring managers soon. They were looking to hire someone with a similar background so they didn’t ask much technical stuff. Things moved quickly after that. I was interviewed again by the head of the department. He explained to my the project and expectations.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Redwood City, CA)
Interview
Applied through university internal website. No news for almost two months and then 2 interviews were quickly scheduled. Two hours after the second interview, got the positive feedback for the next stage which was another same set of 2 interviews three days later. After two days, got the offer that I accepted.
Typical interview : Had time to present myself and my projects (5min) before diving into not-so-hard technical questions (compared to Facebook or Google). I noticed that the interviewers were really well-prepared about my CV.
