I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Oracle (Hyderabad) in Jul 2025
Interview
The Oracle SDE fresher interview process usually involves 3-4 rounds. It begins with an online coding assessment focusing on Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA). Subsequent technical interviews assess DSA, problem-solving, database/SQL, and core computer science fundamentals (OS, networking, OOPs). The final round is typically a managerial/HR discussion focusing on behavioral fit and project work.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
"Given an array of integers, find the contiguous subarray (containing at least one number) which has the largest sum and return its sum." (This is Kadane's Algorithm, a classic dynamic programming question often used to gauge fundamental DSA skills.)
