## Interview process

The candidate described the process as fairly standard. The technical portion focused more on discussing concepts, approaches, and trade-offs than on coding or system design. The behavioral portion covered the candidate’s hardest project. The candidate also noted that the interviewer rambled and did not pace the session well.

- Phone interview
- Technical interview

## Interview rounds

There were **2 questions across 2 rounds**.

### Phone interview — free preview

- **Overview:** Background questions
- **Question types:** [Behavioral](https://www.aced.io/questions?type=behavioral) and [Technical](https://www.aced.io/questions?type=technical)

### Technical interview

The technical round included a 45-minute conversation with a senior interviewer. It consisted mostly of open-ended questions, a short follow-up near the end, and substantial pushback on trade-offs.

The visible sample question was:

> How would you improve a product you use every day for a new market?

The sample response approach was to choose a segment first, size it, compare three options, and select one option together with its success metric.

The page also includes these interview tips:

- Practice answers aloud with a timer.
- Keep a framework ready for every round.
- Ask the recruiter what each interviewer focuses on so you can tailor your examples.

The candidate described the interviewers as collaborative and said they kept redirecting discussion toward the user. The team appeared to value structured thinking over polish, and interviewers left time for questions at the end.

Oracle seems to want people who exhibit their values and they test for this rigorously during the interview (resolving conflicts, leading projects, communication etc). The recruiter was also prompt with feedback and the offer process was really smooth.” **3 rounds.** [Read the full interview](https://www.aced.io/experiences/oracle-software-engineer-interview-5394a2?returnPath=%2Fguides%2Foracle-software-engineer-interview%2Fexperiences)
