Recruiter phone screen: pretty standard screen (tell me about your background and salary expectations, etc). I was originally interviewing for the Account Manager role and we determined that City Manager would be a better fit given my level of experience. Recruiter was in-house and was incredibly responsive throughout the process including calling to "prep" me for the hiring manager interview. Hiring manager: this is where it went off the rails. Most hiring manager interviews are pretty behavior-focused and as the City Manager role was a management role I figured this would be the primary focus of this interview (not to mention this is what the recruiter prepped me for. After initial introductions the HM says its time for the "economics exercise" and proceeds to ask me very detailed finance-related questions that only someone who worked at Uber would know. For example-- tell me how many dollars we pay a courier to deliver each meal. I thought it was like that famous Google question "tell me how many golf balls fit in a school bus" which obviously isn't aimed at getting the right answer but meant to measure your strategic thought process. I started to talk about how I theoretically would go about calculating the courier fees and he cut me off and said that he didn't care about my thought process and he wanted the actual number. The next 10 minutes were a painful back and forth of him asking me insane math questions, that culminated in me trying to solve a hypothetical algebra equation (literally he asked me to solve for x). None of this has anything to do with a people management role at Uber Eats. I almost left the interview early but a morbid curiosity to see how this would end kept me around. Finally I was able to ask questions and I asked what the management needs would be for the current team he has in place (personalities, level of experience, level of oversight needed) and he flat out told me that the sales team is "super aggressive" and that I would need to "prove to them every day why they should want to be my direct reports". At that, I thanked him for his time and took a brief moment of silence and gratitude that I didn't have to work at Uber. My thoughts: this might a good job for a very very very specific type of person who enjoys the "hustle" and off the cuff algebra on a zoom interview.
