I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal in Nov 2023
Interview
I interviewed for the checkout team.
I received a karat interview invite - 2 easy-mediums. Had to use Javascript. I finished both in 30 mins, had 20 mins to spare.
Recruiter phone screen - talked about my career and interest in paypal.
Loop -
Round 1: Easy medium question similar to the karat interview. Again had to use javascript.
Round 2: System design, design reviews service in amazon, assume all other systems are in place
Round 3: very easy coding problem but focus was more on communication skills and ability to work in a team.
Round 4: Behavioural questions about situations in workplace.
Recruiter told me interviewers were really impressed but my experience is a bit low so asked me to apply to other openings.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal (Guatemala City) in Jan 2023
Interview
The process is extensive and very time-consuming (around 1 hour per interview, with interviews every week or so). I had a quick call with an HR person, who explained that all candidates have between 2 to 6 interviews. The first interview is a review of your tech stack and experience, we talked about Java and other technologies. The second one was a technical test, a live coding session, it was not difficult. The third interview was with a product owner, basically repeating interview 1, which at this point I felt was a waste of time, but I continued the process. The fourth interview would be with the "tech manager", but to my surprise, the only person there was another HR person that started explaining the team "was looking for someone with a specific tech stack and that they were not sure I was the right profile, that team will need to review my profile again to see if it fits the role". I mean, it was easy to say "We already filled the position", it happens all the time. For me, that was only an excuse.
