I applied online. I interviewed at Uber in Oct 2024
Interview
Was given a typical CodeSignal OA (Online Assessment) coding challenge involves solving algorithmic problems within a time limit, often testing logic, data structures, and problem-solving skills. It’s popular in tech recruiting.

Two DSA problems over two separate interviews. The first one was a recursion-based string manipulation question. And the second was a tree question. Both asked extension questions after it as well.

Question 1
Tell me about yourself and a project you did in the past
Applied, within a month they sent me an oa. did it and got an interview. one coding question and then a system design along with behavioral questions at the start. pretty hard

Question 1
lc medium to hard. system design question along with behaviorals
The first round was a quick (less than 30 minute) call with recruiter just going over resume. After that, there were two live coding rounds with software engineers. The questions were around the difficulty of leetcode mediums.
