After a very smooth start into the process, it unfortunately became more and more a nightmare. I got referred by a friend of mine working at PayPal already and had an initial interview with a team lead promptly. Then, I was invited to an interview with several decision makers from PayPal. It was a very pleasant round and inspiring. I always had the feeling that I was communicating on an equal footing. The goal was to present a business case and answer behavioural & competency related questions. Afterwards, I was contacted by the Talent Acquisition Team. In this conversation, the basics were discussed again (possible start date, salary expectations, etc.). After 1 1/2 weeks followed up with TA and I was told another interview would follow. It was a 20 min discussion, again with behavioural questions. I considered this interview to be the last one and was expecting feedback very soon. Unfortunately I did not hear anything from PayPal. I’ve contacted 2 people from the TA team 2 times without any response. After catching up with my friend from PayPal I finally got a message from TA, waiting for 3 weeks after having the previous interview. In the end I got an automated rejection without any detailed information nor feedback on my application. After a total of 4 rounds of interviews (and a 7 week long process), I was expecting a more personal note. Also when asking for qualified feedback afterwards I did not receive any response. Actually, I would have not expected this from a well-known company like PayPal.
