I applied through university. I interviewed at PayPal (Vellore) in Jul 2017
Interview
It was a bad experience overall. I answered all the questions asked and they still rejected me. they asked questions on OOPS and basic algorithm optimization. I do not know what they expect from a candidate and they even seemed satisfied with my answers. And as usual, the main problem with interviews are, you never know where you go wrong. I have been rejected before for giving a solution that is better than what the interviewer could come up with and have been rejected on that basis.

I applied online. I interviewed at PayPal (Bengaluru) in Feb 2022
Interview
I applied through a Job portal. 1st round was problem-solving with the medium level string-based problem. I cracked that round. 2nd round was supposed to be a design but the question in that round wasn't a design question. The interviewer was becoming non-responsive sometimes. I solved that question but got rejected for no reason. i contacted Hr to get the details feedback but no response.
