I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal
Interview
We had scheduled a screening call for a week and a half in advance. I spent a lot of time preparing, researching the company, the position, and their product. In other words, I spent a lot of time. However, just before the scheduled call, the recruiter canceled it without any explanation. They simply disregarded all the time I had spent preparing for the interview. I reached out to the recruiter, but received no response. I consider this approach to their work to be extremely irresponsible, especially when representing such a prominent company as PayPal.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at PayPal (Tóquio) in Jun 2024
Interview
I applied to the Paidy.
Interview was pretty friendly but I was rejected with a very strange feedback:
"This is her second time to apply to Paidy, but she was unable to answer any of the same questions we had asked last time."
The point is there was no same questions as from the previous application. There was totally different questions which I answered well enough. After an interview I was thinking that this one was perfect. I was 100% sure that I performed perfectly.
This is ridiculous.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral questions was:
- How do you manage your projects? What do you start with, what do next and so on?

- Why you are going to leave your current job?
Technical questions:
- What makes Rust different from other languages? What do you like in Rust?
