I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Burlington, MA) in Feb 2015
Interview
The interview process was annoying. First of all, I was in contact with a recruiter from Oracle, and she was very nice and even gave me feedback on how to do handle the questions in the next round. Then I was handed off to manager that interviewed me and did not even ask me any substantial questions. Then I was handed off to another manager who was very rude. She basically told me that I was not allowed to move around in the company and I was expected to stay in the position at my time at Oracle. Then I was informed that my recruiter would inform me about the next steps in the interview process. I emailed her, and contacted her through phone and she completely ignored me. You would think that a company so well known would at least act professional and say I am sorry you were not suited for the position and then call it a day.

Question 1
Recruiter questions were: What is your definition of success? Why sales? How do you handle stress? How do you handle rejection?
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Oracle (Boston, MA) in Mar 2015
Interview
I was contacted via email in response to my application to schedule a phone interview with a college recruiter. The interview was very casual, and conversational so I was told I would move to the second round. The second round of interviews was conducted by a sales representative at Oracle, and was similar in fashion of the first interview (casual, no standard interview questions.) This conversation was very similar to my first conversation with a recruiter, but I was not continued onto the interview process, for reasons unknown to me.
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Oracle (Chapel Hill, NC) in Apr 2015
Interview
Met a recruiter at the campus job fair. Was sent a confirmation email for a phone interview with HR a few days later. A week later I had an interview with the HR rep I met at the fair. I went through a totla of three phone interviews on the phone. The first was with HR, second with a manager in Boston, and the third with a manager in Austin.
I had an advantage because I knew someone that worked at Oracle and called them and got the DL on what the job entailed, etc. Then I talked to multiple people that worked for the company which really helped impress my interviewers. I was offered a job two days after my 3rd phone interview.
