Oracle Software Engineer interview questions

Initial HR screening, then group technical interview over conference call. I called in five minutes ahead of time and waited fifteen minutes. None of them showed up. Set up a second attempt with the recruiter. Again, I called in five minutes early. After ten minutes of dead air, I felt there might be a connection problem (Interview was scheduled five minutes ago by this point). I hung up and dialed again. This time a couple of the interviewers were on, discussing how I wasn’t. This is about eight minutes into when the interview should have started. More stragglers. No apologies. They asked the generic “tell us about yourself” I asked what they would want to know. Manager then jumps in with questions about how I’ve used various technologies. Technical person asks some basic questions on closures in JavaScript, I answer. She then asks “what are the advantages of jQuery” I mention chaining functions and DOM selection. She then responds. “Those aren’t the answers I was looking for ... the correct answer is cross browser programming.” She then asks if I’ve ever used Typescript (it’s not on my resume because I’ve only touched it twice) I mention that I’ve toyed with it. She then really interrogated me on it. I told her what I did with it - simple transpiling to ES5 - and she harps on how inappropriate that is for fifteen minutes. After her rant, I ask “what are you really looking for?” And the answer was “we’re looking for someone who’s creative - who can solve creative problems.” I waited a few seconds hoping they’d ask an interview question based on that ... nothing. No “tell us if a difficult problem and how you faced it.” or “here’s a problem - how might this get solved?” No questions that related to what they claimed to be wanting. It’s like a bad speed-date where a snob says he’s wanting someone with emotional integrity and humor, but never asks any of those questions and makes a quick decision based on your looks. My advice is for Oracle to spend time with interviewers, teach them the skill, advise them to ask questions that line up with the company values (creative thinkers) or stop BS’ing themselves and admit they just want to hire academic code monkeys.
