I applied online. I interviewed at eBay (Austin, TX) in Jun 2017
Interview
Interview was based on behavior. Phone interview went great. Went in for assessment and all were friendly. Then went in for an interview and everyone was very cold. Completely different.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work for eBay?
Basic questions on how you would handle situations.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at eBay (San Jose, CA) in Mar 2013
Interview
I first had a phone screen with a recruiter, then a phone interview with the hiring manager. For two of the roles I applied for, I then was flown out for an in-person interview with 4-8 people, followed by a follow-up conversation with the hiring manager.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at eBay (Dublín, Dublín) in Apr 2017
Interview
Interview very quick, made me worried about how fast the stages were going,
I done all the online things then had a face to face interview there. Interview was not on time and took a long time as they could not find a room for the phone interview.
3 weeks passed and heard nothing back so i presumed i did not get the job, got a phone call with a job offer exactly 3 weeks after my interview. She asked had anyone been in contact with me and when i said no she apologized that i should have been contacted. I told her i was happy with the offer and accepted.
Then i went on the next day to review the job title to refresh my mind on roles and responsibilities when i seen 10 weeks training no holidays permitted. This was not on my original application so i tried to get back in contact as i needed one Friday off after my start date. 2 emails and 7 calls i had no response regarding my query then someone from HR rang me i told her about the day i needed off and she said she would look into it for me but the trainers are strict on attendance. Received a phone call today saying i would not be allowed have one day off as i agreed at interview that i have full availability which i did at the time of interview presuming i had no job offer i then made other plans.
HR agreed with me that this was not on the original job application but yet i am the one that suffers because of something they failed to communicate.
This was not communicated at the time of my application so over all i was not very happy with how my interview experience and treatment was. Here's hoping the job is better.
