Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Please do not set a foot forward for sustenance engineering in Oracle. Its the worst ever job you could get caught into. The package you negotiate when joining (which is very lean), is only trusted thing you might have which might be same until you retire. Hikes are like urban legend in Oracle, "someone had seen it some years back, cant place it which year though". Managers couldnt get any meaner with their subordinates. Teams play blame game which is how they survive. Even if its the other teams misunderstanding they'd argue and hurl rage at you until you pull out the book where there's a proof of their understanding being wrong. They deduct money from your salary for any outing, gifting or celebrations. Even then if you miss out on grabbing the gift, that wont reach you, simple.

Round 1 - Technical 

(1 Question)

  • Q1. They have interview from all spheres, little bit of coding round, system design question, java. But, all are meaningless. Just to pose as though its really tough to get through and only for numbers they ha...
Round 2 - Coding Test 

Very general, not very intricate.

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - 1. PLEASE steer clear if you get a call from Oracle. Especially if from sustenance engineering, SOA or any such teams.
2. Only join if you really have to jump from the current org, but keep yourself on toes to jump anywhere from here within 6 months.
3. No matter how good you're experienced that doesnt get valued and your package would be negotiated to far lesser than market value.
4. And you'd have to carry yourself in that package for next 5-8 years before a 2 or 3% hike comes your way.
