I applied online. I interviewed at Oracle in Apr 2018
Interview
Once I applied I was scheduled for an online interview. After that, I was given two follow-up interviews on-site (Spring 2018). First interview was more of giving me algorithm questions, second one was more of getting to know me.

Question 1
They just gave me a few average algorithms as well as some questions to assess my problem solving skills
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Oracle (Austin, TX)
Interview
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.
