I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2015
Interview
I knew a data scientist there, so I contacted him and got the process started. I had an informational interview with him, after which there was a take home test. The test tested SQL and statistics/machine learning knowledge. I thought I did okay on statistics/machine learning, but my SQL was very rusty. After this, they did not decide to continue the process.

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.
