J'ai postulé via une autre source. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez eBay (Dublin, Dublin) en mai 2025
Entretien
The Hiring Manager approached me on LinkedIn and showed interest in my profile. He shared good things about his team, and I agreed to an interview since it aligned with my interests.
Had a technical round with a guy. He asked a medium LC question of recursion. The solution is not as lengthy as it is the case with the recursion problem.
I first discussed the problem with non-optimized solutions, and he asked about the memory and time costs that I explained, and he asked to improve, which I did iteratively first for time and memory. Wrote the straightforward code. Not much discussion on it.
He jumped on my current projects and experience. Asking some counter questions, and that's it.
The recruiter ghosted me. I knew I hadn't passed, but I wanted to have the feedback. After a couple of emails and weeks, the recruiter contacted me. The feedback was lame.
* My approach to the problem requires nudges from the interviewer and is not perfect the first time.
* The code was not up to the mark. The simple recursion code, on which he didn't discuss anything it was OK.
* My experience was not up to the mark of their requirements. My QPS doesn't match their system. Can ask the same earlier in the exploratory call and have not wasted the time.
I am happy that I didn't go through.
It is not a small company and should invest in training people for interviews.
The interview process started with a 30-minute recruiter screening, which focused on my background, experience, and interest in the role. The recruiter also provided an overview of the team and position.
The next round was a 1-hour technical interview. I was asked to design and implement a Spring Boot application for an e-commerce website. The discussion covered REST API design, entity modeling, service and repository layers, application architecture, and coding best practices. The interviewer also asked follow-up questions about scalability, error handling, and design decisions made during the implementation.
Overall, the interview was technical and practical, focusing on real-world backend development skills using Spring Boot.

Question 1
Leet code medium question and follow up questions about data structure
There were five rounds in the process: an initial recruiter call, a first manager call, followed by three technical rounds in a loop.
In the first round, they assessed whether my background aligned with the role requirements. During the manager call, I was expecting a coding round, but instead, they asked three situational questions. After that, I received a rejection.
