Don't waste your time on PayPal interviews if you are actively looking.

Got a call from HR, who forgot to explain the Job Description.

Interviews were scheduled, and there were 5 rounds.

Interviewers were very nice and polite, helping me understand the problem.

And the problem starts:

Once the 5th round was done, I called HR. She said she would be able to update after a week.

Next week, I reached out to her. She did not pick up the call. I called the next day with no response.

I emailed as well, with no response.

The next day, I got a call from some other HR mentioning an opportunity. I explained the entire situation that happened.

She said she knows the other HR and will ask her to contact me. Still no response.

I would say, if you are actively looking (which was not the case for me), please don't waste your time on PayPal interviews. It's going to be frustrating only.
