I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Jul 2015
Interview
Started out with a conversation with the recruiter, who then sent out a take-home test to be returned in a week. The test wasn't too hard, one question tested SQL ability, another tested product sense (what metrics would you consider, etc) and the third involved building a predictive model (any programming language accepted). The follow-up was then a conversation about the role with the data science lead, along with some simple product sense questions. If this goes well, you're invited for an on-site with 5/6 members of your team. Impress them and then congratulations, the offer is yours!

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.
