I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (New York, NY) in Jun 2022
Interview
Recruitment was messy. The recruiter responded, we an initial phone call; which is normal. BUT at the end I was told I'd get a time sensitive email, but it was never sent. I had to reach out a week later to get the email, the recruiter claimed they were sick and forgot about it, so this was likely an anomaly.
Interview as also a mess. I applied for a front end focussed role and was interview by someone who said they worked on the main Uber app's ride share pricing algorithm. They gave me the interview question, I struggled with the first way to solve, they told me to switch to a different way, I struggled there, they told me to switch back, by that point there wasn't enough time to get to the solution.
The interviewer was not a good fit, nor good at doing interview. I will admit at the end of the day, I didn't solve the problem and that's on me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Don't have the specific question, but the solution had a hashmap based solution or a recursion based solution.
The interview process started with a recruiter screen where they covered my background and the role's expectations. Next, I had a phone screen focused on technical skills where I faced a DSA question on frequent elements in an array. I had practiced similar problems on prachub.com beforehand, which helped me tackle it effectively. The technical rounds consisted of coding and system design questions, including rate limiting. Finally, I had a behavioral interview where they assessed cultural fit. Overall, the experience was average, but I received and accepted an offer.

Interview
The interview process begins with an initial BFS screening to evaluate overall fit and relevant experience, followed by three virtual onsite interviews that focus on coding ability, an in-depth discussion of technical background and past projects, as well as behavioral and collaboration-related questions to assess communication and teamwork skills.
