      Anonymous employee
      San Jose, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at PayPal (San Jose, CA) in Aug 2013

      Interview

      The whole process was soooo long. It took almost 4 months from the screening call to the last step which was getting the background check results. Kroll is so slow on International hires.

      Sales Engineer Interview

      3 Aug 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at PayPal

      Interview

      Never got a chance to interview because PayPal recruiters kept playing with me for months. It was such a waste of time when the role was a perfect fit to my profile. During the whole duration, the role kept switching to different recruiters and never received a confirmation that it was closed or cancelled. Extremely bad communication practices. Won't recommend PayPal ever.
