I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2017
Interview
Hour-long phone screen with a hacker-rank, a take-home, then a full-day onsite with white board coding, project discussion, business case and statistical concept discussion. All were fairly standard with an emphasis on applying mathematical/statistical concepts to business problems. Coding was standard except it had a probabilistic software element.

I applied online. I interviewed at Uber (San Jose, CA) in May 2026
Interview
My interview started with a stats coding round where I was asked to code for expected value for a problem and the second interview was a case study which was quite easy

Question 1
Expected value for a dice problem and a case study about a Uber problem
The process was smooth and well organized. A recruiter initially reached out, followed by a first round consisting of two interviews—one with the team manager and another with a data scientist, both engaging and informative.
