Interview
Despite them telling you otherwise, their background check will contact your former employer. Very misleading.
Overall, Process went quickly - 3 rounds in total. Friendly recruiter who was responsive via email and text.

Unfortunately I did not get the position but overall it was a very professional and pleasant interview process. My recruiter kept me up to date on where I was in the process. The individuals I interviewed with were extremely friendly and a pleasure to meet. I hope another opportunity opens up in the future that allows me to showcase my talents with this exceptional organization.

I applied online. I interviewed at eBay (Trim) in Jul 2022
Interview
The interview process was very frustrating as it spanned across nearly a month and a half.
It was a 5-step process, in the beginning I was assessed by a recruiter and was communicating with her, everything was very positive. HireVue was used - which is regularly what is used and I have no issue using it was very clear on how to complete your self recorded interview. My issue was once it came to the interview with two of the eBay representatives I was told I had been sucessful up to this point and that my experience speaks for itself. During this entire process they were well aware that I had management experience and years of customer service experience.
I was told to use the STAR method when answering questions in my interview which I did and always do.
I was then called the following morning and notified that the interviewers did not like my answers and that I reflected my managers experience more than how I work myself. This is absurd and I was obviously disappointed. The position I had applied for over a month ago, which I am highly overqualified for and showed the necessary strengths for, had been given to someone else because I have too much experience. In my opinion they are hiring internally.
