Other Software Developer Intern interview reviews for PayPal
I had one interview that included basic computer science questions, along with a coding task to implement an array supporting O(1) operations such as set-all, and some additional multithreading questions related to that set-all array implementation.

Received an OA for this. The OA had two questions: one easy difficulty and one medium. They were similar if not identical to Leetcode's premium tagged questions for this company. Sadly, I did the OA late and got ghosted.

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at PayPal (San Jose, CA) in Oct 2025
Interview
I got ghosted after doing great in both interviews. I can't believe companies ghost even students nowadays especially for a big name like Paypal. Kinda sucks, but it definitely says more about them.
