Uber weekly trips? - I did some assumptions. They did not expect me to have the exact number but for the logic behind the answer. I started from the number of active drivers that they have on the platform (and they had shared it publicly on media), then I assumed a number of weekly trips per driver and I assumed some of them would drive less than a few hours, so I came out with a number and they liked the reasoning behind. What I though about Uber's culture? - I gave very honest feedback with the top 3 things I liked from Uber the most and the top 3 things I think Uber had to work on (find them on media if you want).

I responded with: I was running our annual sailing event in Boston and unfortunately my manager had scheduled it to sail at 5, rush hour traffic in the city is no joke. I talked the captain into not departing just yet (and not charging us for it either) as one of our sales guys was waiting on an important customer who was stuck in the traffic - this customer had come from New Jersey and would have been very very disappointed to miss it. In other words this could've cost us the relationship with the customer. We ended up sailing out 30 minutes later than anticipated but we were able to watch the sun set over the city (which was beautiful). The customer was very grateful and our sales guy was able to close out the deal that night. I believed that was a good answer. Far better than perhaps a more analytical focused one like "I forecasted margin in the weekly sales reports so my coworkers could see what commission they are bringing in" (our back office software doesn't forecast margin so they actually did appreciate this greatly.)
