I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at PayPal in Sep 2017
Interview
I got an email for a recruiter asking to set up a interview time. The interviewer was extremely rude. It seemed like he is in hurry and he was not helpful at all. It was very bad experience.

Question 1
Implement hashcode()
Questions on string comparison

I am not clear what they were trying to ask but it was related to implementing a class which keeps the track of time.

Interview
The phone screens are not very organized. The recruiter tells that there will be only technical questions asked and no coding exercised will be given. However, the interviewer asked coding exercise. I think it is better to prepare for all possibilities.

Question 1
He asked me a design question during phone screen (implementation). Since there were only 45 mins and he expected a working implementation I treated it like the normal coding exercise without going too much into various aspects of design details.
