I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal (San Jose, CA) in Apr 2019
Interview
Phone screen and technical interview process was straightforward but onsite interview was not ideal. Once onsite, I had several questions that were not related to what I would be working on such as Android questions for an iOS role.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal (San Jose, CA) in Mar 2017
Interview
Applied online through the PayPal jobs website. I was then contacted by a recruiter to set up a technical phone screening with a software engineer on the team. After passing the first round, I was invited onsite to meet with more members of the team at the PayPal North Campus. Very smooth and quick process with the utmost transparency.
