Solicité el puesto a través de la recomendación de un empleado. El proceso duró 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Uber (San Francisco, CA) en ene 2016
Entrevista
Applied via friend referral. Two rounds of phone interview, first is coding and second is system design. You need to pass them one by one. Then onsite is scheduled with 5 rounds, start with culture fit/behavior, which basically is just chatting, what's your projects, why Uber, etc. Then a system design round, followed by another open-ended problem solving plus a little coding, then another full coding round, finally another chat+design. Overall, they really value the culture fit and your project background, more than half of total interview time was just chatting. Coding was fairly easy and they want to evaluate how you'd perform in day-to-day coding task by asking you what would you do in code review, how to write unit test etc. Interviewers are super busy but passionate about Uber, and they expect the same from you.

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.
