Toronto, ONPosted May 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through what felt like a pretty standard loop for eBay, even though it didn’t feel like there was one rigid “template” they always followed.

Over the process I ended up with three DSA-focused rounds plus one system design round. The expectations were very much the same style I’d practiced for—talking through solutions, walking through reasoning, and showing how I’d approach the problem step by step.

The team around me was genuinely nice, and the experience never turned stressful or weird. The questions themselves were in line with what I’d prepared for, and nothing caught me off guard in a major way. By the end, I felt like I’d represented my skills clearly, and the interaction quality made the whole process feel calmer than it
