I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2023
Interview
1 interview of 30 minutes with the hiring manager and then 1 with each member of the team. Pretty classic questions about your CV and the job. Very comfortable sessions and friendly environment.
