SWE Intern Interview

22 Dec 2025

Anonymous employee

Accepted offer

Positive experience

Easy interview

Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal (San Jose, CA) in Oct 2025

Interview

1 phone interview, 2 technical interview (varies per team), and one recruiter call (received offer). It was pretty streamlined. One of the technical interview leaned more toward system design, so I didn't receive a live-coding style question for that particular round
