      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at eBay (Ámsterdam) in Jan 2013

      Interview

      First I had an interview with a senior developer. He asked me for my current job and function. The he asked about projects that I 've worked on and to explain how did I approached them. Very relaxed mood. Then I received an assignment, to process a bit amount of data (map reduce). Then I have an interview with a project manager, who was evaluating my company fit, I guess. Finally, I was asked to get a security check for a third investigation party (to permission to investigate my yahoo account if I have and to paypal...). Something about relations with countries that are in the terror list of US or so. I found it weird because I was living in Amsterdam and the job was in Amsterdam. The process took long and in the meantime, I found another job. I called them to thank them for the chance they gave me and that I have found another job.

      I interviewed at eBay

      Interview

      The interview process started with a 30-minute recruiter screening, which focused on my background, experience, and interest in the role. The recruiter also provided an overview of the team and position. The next round was a 1-hour technical interview. I was asked to design and implement a Spring Boot application for an e-commerce website. The discussion covered REST API design, entity modeling, service and repository layers, application architecture, and coding best practices. The interviewer also asked follow-up questions about scalability, error handling, and design decisions made during the implementation. Overall, the interview was technical and practical, focusing on real-world backend development skills using Spring Boot.

      I interviewed at eBay

      Interview

      There were five rounds in the process: an initial recruiter call, a first manager call, followed by three technical rounds in a loop. In the first round, they assessed whether my background aligned with the role requirements. During the manager call, I was expecting a coding round, but instead, they asked three situational questions. After that, I received a rejection.
