J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Uber (San Francisco, CA) en août 2015
Entretien
Was referred to a recruiter through a friend, and settled on a date for a phone interview.
The phone interview was with someone pretty fresh out of college, and I got the sense he didn't really know what he was doing. The question format was somewhat disorganized, but I was able to pass this round with some pseudo code the interviewer was happy with. The interviewer assumed I was applying for a front-end position and wanted me to code in javascript/angular, when I was applying for a backend position and didn't know any of the languages he was looking for.
On-site, I interviewed with about 5 people before ending the day. Some of my interviewees seemed frazzled when coming in; I got the impression they were pretty stressed out. None of the questions I was asked were particularly hard. The company gives you a laptop to code on for your interview, but interviewers were pretty happy with just coding on a whiteboard instead. None of my interviewers knew the password to the laptop anyway.
I got an offer from Uber, but had the offer revoked when I started asking some questions about what it's like to work there to the manager. I got the impression some of my interviewers weren't really all that happy which raised a few alarms for me. The stock compensation was generous, but the company refused to budge on anything else in a very take it or leave it kind of attitude. It's insulting how they try to come across as doing you a favor when you did all the work in preparing for the interview loop.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Two system design questions, one question where you talk about your former work experience, and two coding questions.
Very smooth, interviewers were friendly, on-site and all interviews in the same day. Managed to grab lunch and talk about the company culture. Good guidance throughout the process. Two coding, two system design, one bar raiser, one hiring manager.

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.
