I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at PayPal in Sept 2021
Interview
Recently had a chance to attend the interview for Data Scientist position. Initial process of communicating and scheduling interview was good. But interview wasn’t. Interviewer looked tired. Despite giving right answers, was rejected.
Advice- please don’t waste time of candidates if you guys are not interested to select

Process was very well managed by the internal recruiter. Technical rounds of average difficulty and then final rounds with Israeli based managers were strangely confrontational - vague questions with no clarification or context. I would apply again to the company but avoid that particular team if possible.

Started with an introductory recruiter call, followed by a virtual technical interview. The interview consisted of behavioral and technical parts. Was asked about my motivation for applying to Paypal, previous internship experiences, and a leetcode-style question
