I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2016
Interview
I was an employee referral. The whole process was completed in less than 2 weeks. It started with a phone call to a recruiter, then a remote technical screening, followed by a take home exam. The take home was challenging but accomplishable. They flew me out within a week of grading my exam, where I was interviewed by 4 people. Two conceptual interviews and two coding-based interviews. Overall a very positive and quick experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Distance between siblings in trees, basic SQL queries.
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.

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.
