I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at eBay (San Jose, CA) in Sept 2012
Interview
Got HR call through an open event conducted at the company. HR said the interview would be 90 mins and a virtual white board where there would be coding involved. The interviewer calls and asks basic questions regarding HTML (??) , JavaScript. I offer to show him some code samples of mine online but he refuses saying coding is only during in person interview( the HR said this interview will be particularly coding). It was like they were asking questions from some question bank. He hangs up after 30 mins saying someone will be calling me soon. I think its the HR but no, another interviewer calls me. He speaks almost the same way. Nothing about the company or what they do. He sees my code sample and asks me what use is of this. Both of them were using speakerphone so was very low (though the first interviewer rectified it midway). Later HR calls me and says I am not selected. That was expected.
The overall process if very fundamental and easy. Brush up on fundamentals, even concepts you may never actually use in a production environment.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at eBay (Amsterdam) in Jun 2022
Interview
The procedure began with submission of resume, followed by an initial phone screening with a recruiter to discuss background and interest in the role. After passing this stage, you progressed through several rounds of interviews, conducted remotely over four weeks. The final stage involved four separate interviews in a single day, each focusing on different aspects: technical skills, behavioral traits, team fit, and managerial assessment. These interviews evaluated your expertise, interpersonal skills, and alignment with eBay’s culture and goals.

The steps would have been 3:
