I applied through college or university. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Oracle (Austin, TX) in Apr 2018
Interview
3 informational interviews - extremely chill. Just know your resume well. You will be expected to show how your previous experience prepares you to take on the current role. In addition, its important to show that you are very comfortable on the phone because you will spend a lot of time in the role talking to customers.
All behavioral and pretty straight forward. The interviewer will keep it pretty dry to try and see if you're confident and have a strong personality. Make sure your communication skills are well developed.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time where you had to make a challenging decision.
I applied through other source. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Oracle (Boston, MA) in Dec 2017
Interview
(same job/interview process as the Sales and Development Rep - they're synonyms)
1 call with a recruiter to vet you're qualified
2 follow-up calls or 2 in-person interviews with BDR/SDR managers to see your skills and technique - they're more looking for your talent and willingness to want to grow in the role
Also, my interview process was unique in that I never interviewed in person.
