I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at eBay (Londres, Inglaterra) in May 2018
Interview
Initial contact with HR, then two phone calls with direct report and HOD. This was followed by 3 separate Skype interviews with other global team members. The final round was an assignment which was to be presented face-to-face, followed by a short interview.

What would you do in your first 90 days in this role?

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at eBay (Dublín, Dublín) in Jul 2018
Interview
1. Application online [I wish they didn't use Taleo :-)] 2. HR phone interview (40-50 minutes). I am writing this review to show my appreciation about the personalized approach and honesty when notifying me about not proceeding with my application. A week after phone interview I followed-up with the recruiter about status of my application. She replied to me saying that the hiring manager had decided to progress with some of the internal applicants first although my skillset and experience looked interesting and if that role should be re-opened again anytime in the near future they would come back to me. She also encouraged me to apply for future jobs I am interested in and letting her know about it. I think it was nice and I really appreciate that approach, particularly that I have been rejected a couple of times (different companies) losing a battle to internal candidate. I am very glad this time I was spared that effort and preparation I would have put into the process (that would have gone to waste).
