I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2014
Interview
- The phone interview was a live coding session. It is a pretty difficult front-end problem.
- The onsite was 4 panels with 2 engineers each. Mostly white boarding with culture questions with the manager.
- My interview was 9am in the morning and glad that interviewers didn't hate me for that.
- Interviewers are smart and professional.
Very smooth, interviewers were friendly, on-site and all interviews in the same day. Managed to grab lunch and talk about the company culture. Good guidance throughout the process. Two coding, two system design, one bar raiser, one hiring manager.
