I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at eBay (San Jose, CA) in Jul 2009
Interview
I was a seller on eBay. eBay contacted me via email about joining them for their new investigations team. They asked for my phone number to call me. The phone interview lasted for about 20 minutes. They told me I would hear for sure the next day. They emailed the next day and said welcome to the team.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at eBay (Draper, UT)
Interview
Before an interview, they email you with some tests. Typing test, Internet test, and a basic quiz. Then they have you write down references, and make sure these people KNOW about it, because ebay emails them right away for the references to take a quiz about you. After you pass all that you get an interview. I thought my interview went well, and they said the would get back to me in a few days after checking my background and credit......still no call.....still no email...nothing....I had 8 people from their background check department emailing me because NO ONE communicated....finally they told me I didn't get the position..after 2 weeks...

The first step was a quick typing test and a remedial internet test. Then the HR recruiter brought you in for a short interview. Then later I was interviewed by 2 current supervisors in the account management dept.

Question 1
They had me do a fake phone call to a company explaining why they should sell on eBay. It was a little difficult and I was glad that I had studied about eBay before the interview. I thought it was odd though because I never once cold called a company to tell them to sell on eBay.
