I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at PayPal (Chennai) in July 2015
Interview
It had four rounds in total. The first round was multiple choice aptitude and computer science oriented questions. Second round was online coding round. Third and Fourth were face to face interview.

Question 1
The question asked was:
a) Convert Roman number to Decimal system
b) Convert Decimal system number to Roman numeral
c) An algorithm to sort million Roman numerals
The look-up table for Roman numerals up to 1000 was provided (i.e., 1=I,
5=V, 10=X, 50=C, 100=L, and so on)
I had a recruiter call and they said they would send me a link to a Karat interview round in a week but I never received it. I mailed the recruiter multiple times but got no response or communication about it

I interviewed 2 round, one front end, one hire manager, but didn’t move forward. The hr is helpful, the hire manager round asked about system design questions, which I feel may cause the rejection.
