A recruiter was emailing me twice a year for two years about how interested he was in getting me in to interview, and if I was on the market yet. So when I finally decided it was time to start looking for my next role, I emailed him since I was interested in hearing more. He responded a month or so later after the roles I'd asked about had already been hired for, but pointed out that there were new ones out there now if I was interested. I said I was, and applied for several and followed up to let him know. Got absolutely nothing back at any point after that, even after following up again. What an absolute waste of my time. Also, their job app site is terrible. Why is there only a tiny, non-expandable text box to explain each role? Who designed this?
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.
I applied online. I interviewed at Uber in May 2026
Interview
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.
