      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal (San Jose, CA) in Mar 2018

      Interview

      I applied online in Feb 2018 and received an email from the recruiter a week back. The first round was a phone screening round where an MTS Engineer asked questions related to my work experience, projects, instances where I handled production related issues etc. He asked a couple of easy questions on Data Structures. I interviewed on Friday and on coming Monday, the recruiter contacted me informing me that the team wants to schedule back to back two interviews with an MTS 2 Engineer and my Manager. My interview with both of them could be termed from average to slightly tough.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      One of the interviews involved coding a question on BFS. The Managerial round was a good mix of technical questions where I was grilled on networking questions, design problems and a DS question on Graph.
