I applied online. I interviewed at PayPal in Mar 2026
Interview
I had an initial conversation with a PayPal recruiter to discuss my background and the role, followed by a coding interview with Karat. The interviews themselves were a positive experience. After waiting about a week for updates, I reached out to the recruiter but haven’t received a response yet. I’m still unclear on the typical timeline and steps in PayPal’s hiring process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Java specific knowledge, debug Java coding issues, and data structures & algorithms.
4 rounds, technical mostly asked nor really hard questions. Generally liked how it looked like but the last round was like they already weren't really interested in me. But previous ones were really positive.
