I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal
Interview
Was approached via my Linked In profile. Had a phone screen on a Friday afternoon. Was interview the next Tuesday over the phone. Flown out to San Jose within a matter of days. An entire day of back:back interviews. Skype interview w SVP the next week. Offer extended. Lightning speed.

Question 1
How I would refine the acquisition strategy for PayPal products to move away from organic growth and drive more aggressive and deliberate acquisition.
Great interview process for first 3 rounds. Then I met with a VP who showed up 15 minutes late and was texting and emailing during the entire interview. The first 3 rounds I was fortunate to meet with some great individuals, but the last round was such a turn off.

Recruiter reached out and had a good conversation. Set me up a meeting with a hiring manager and someone else on the team. After the interviews I never heard from anyone again, and received a rejection email 60 days later. Overall poor experience.

Question 1
Typical questions- tell me about yourself, why do you want to work at PayPal, what would you bring to the role.
Told I was not given the role because I was deemed way too overqualified, but I'm welcome to come back to interview for more senior roles (which never pan out so I went down a step). In any case, couldn't they have told me that upfront?
