I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal in Oct 2022
Interview
Did a fairly normal phone screen that was pretty nice actually because the recruiter seemed very knowledgeable; that was refreshing. However, the hiring manager interview afterward got rescheduled four times. It eventually happened and pretty quickly in the interview it seemed they had reorged the position I applied for and the position carried the same title but had vastly different expectations. It was pretty jarringly out of line with the job description. It didn't go well because I couldn't speak to what they were asked. A takeaway might be to take the staff reviews a face value around the reorgs and restructuring being pervasive.
