J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez PayPal (Singapour) en janv. 2022
Entretien
Two rounds of parallel technical interviews + one round of manager interview. Technical interviews are very easy (leetcode easy questions) + Java foundations. Manager round is like a talk, no technical questions asked
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Coding question:
Given a sorted array, return another array after square each element within the original array.
What is polymorphism?
Some very simple questions about data structures, such as what is the time complexity of inserting and deleting elements from a priority queue.

Entretien
A call with manager followed by 2 45 min interviews. One was a typical leetcode question and the other was a system design question. The system design for me was pretty difficult since I am not used to it but the leetcode interview was easy, The system design interview varies for some. Some people got a simple OOP system design question but I got a real system design question where I had to design a feature.

J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez PayPal (San Jose, CA) en avr. 2026
Entretien
OA -> 15min recruiter screen -> 2x 45 min tech rounds (one LC/algorithmic/DSA, one system design/behavioral engineering manager). Super chill, didn't expect to hear back in less than a week. First tech was on Hackerrank with an engineer, try to get 15/15 test cases passed and communicate your thought process. Second tech was a resume grill (really know those bullet points) and a simple verbal system design.
