Oracle interview questions

I interviewed for an SDR role and left with SERIOUS concerns about the hiring culture. The SDR team appeared to be overwhelmingly white based on what I could see publicly and through networking. I coffee chatted with multiple current SDRs before the interview, and nearly everyone I found was white. As a non-white candidate, it was honestly difficult not to notice the lack of representation. After going through the process and being rejected without meaningful feedback, I could not help but wonder whether unconscious bias played a role. The interview experience itself also did not feel respectful. The recruiter was late, seemed dismissive, and created a tone that felt unnecessarily cold and condescending. This was especially frustrating because people currently in the role had told me the interview was supposed to be simple and that candidates were not expected to know everything. I am not saying every rejection is discrimination, but when a team appears extremely homogeneous and the interview process feels dismissive and opaque, it raises real questions. Oracle should take a much closer look at whether its SDR hiring process is truly inclusive, transparent, and fair to candidates from underrepresented backgrounds.

Two rounds: 1. Phone screen covering previous experience and projects 2. Online interview that covered behavioral and tecnhical questions. In terms of techincal questions, this was split between a "quiz"/conversation about basic software engineering concepts (version control, language specifics, compilers, etc.) and an LC medium type question.
