I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal (San Jose, CA) in Mar 2018
Interview
Phone followed by onsite with 3 people, no lunch, one person after the another. Poor experience. Hiring manager didn't even come to meet so I knew that it was not normal
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at PayPal (San Jose, CA) in June 2018
Interview
Recruiter reached out over email after applying for the position online. The recruiter I found was very wary of my selection and never was willing to talk. The process was highly disorganized, the coordination between all was very shaken. I refused the offer because I felt the team would not be worth settling for. The interview questions were very basic and does not warrant any sort of prior preparation as such and yes lunch even though was mentioned in the agenda was not provided. Go figure! At the end I felt it was a wastage of my time.
