Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
Worst interview experience ever!! The interviewer rescheduled my interview thrice, including once on the weekend, and failed to call every single time. He would call an hour late just to reschedule again. Never has anyone been so unprofessional in my entire life. This makes me seriously wonder about the work ethics of the people hired by PayPal.
Questions
Yet to be asked one, because I have been rescheduled thrice.
