I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at eBay (San Jose, CA)
Interview
Overall a very good experience. Very traditional process. Recruiter reached out, scheduled initial conversations, then phone screens and onsite. Received and accepted offer after negotiations. Waited for H1 transfer and joined.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Signed NDA so cannot do it. Practice general coding problems and some system design conversations. Youtube is an excellent source for system design.
Standard leetcode problems. 2D arrays and whatnot. I didn’t like that it was an offline interview; no one was on the call while I was solving problems. I was not surprised I didn’t get the offer, and I didn’t like interviewing for a company that had such an impersonal interview process.

Navigate through a 2D array in a spiral or something like that.
Standard HR round with questions about your resume and experiences. A short introduction was given of this position, including the salary range and compensation scheme. Something was asked about expectations from the position.
