I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal (Austin, TX)
Interview
I was brought in to interview for a Frontend UI developer position. But every person (except 1) I met with was a Java developer. The questions asked to me were not related to the position I had been led to believe I was interviewing for. They were very disorganized and some of the interviews were with who would be my direct report except he was not understandable (bad accent) and located in CA. They only positive part of the process was I am now confident I do not want to ever work for Paypal. Oh, tons of arrogance by the interviewers. I guess you've "made it" if you work for Paypal.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Java: Binary Trees; HashMaps; HashTrees.
javascript Enclosures; Running PHP inside of Javascript.
Again, tons of Java related questions for a Frontend UI position.
I had a recruiter call and they said they would send me a link to a Karat interview round in a week but I never received it. I mailed the recruiter multiple times but got no response or communication about it

I interviewed 2 round, one front end, one hire manager, but didn’t move forward. The hr is helpful, the hire manager round asked about system design questions, which I feel may cause the rejection.
