OMCS: Oracle had come to my college for recruiting and the process took around 10 to 12 days. The unit which had come to our college was OMCS( Oracle managed cloud services). Initially, we had to fill a Google form that was sent by our placement department.

Few questions on data structures which were on stacks and queues. I was asked to explain the bubble sort, and they asked about the time complexities. An editor was shared, and I was given two questions to solve.
