I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Uber in Jul 2016
Interview
The process began with typical phone screens. This was followed by two online coding assessments via HackerRank. I then went onsite for additional interviews. Two of the "onsite" interviews were with remote employees in another office. The onsite process began by building a full Android app based on an API that Uber provided. This was followed by another HackerRank test. This time the interviewer was in the room and simply watched me and wrote down notes as I completed the test. This was by far the most awkward part of the interview. The remainder of the interviews were conversational in nature and the engineering team was personable.
Surprisingly, the interview felt quite straightforward, especially for a senior role. I started with a technical screen, where I was asked to design an Uber Eats cart service. It caught me off guard initially, but then I remembered a specific mock I had practiced on PracHub that was nearly spot-on with this scenario. The final round included some behavioral questions, and although I received an offer, I ultimately decided to decline. Overall, it was a positive experience.

Interview
Round 1 - Coding
Question: Count Rectangle-Line Intersections. Given a set of rectangles and a set of vertical line segments, count how many places the vertical lines intersect the rectangle edges (ignoring edge-on-edge overlaps).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Count Rectangle-Line Intersections. Given a set of rectangles and a set of vertical line segments, count how many places the vertical lines intersect the rectangle edges.
2 coding phases + 1 system design + 1 behavior.
It followed the Big Tech interview process.
The interviewers were nice and supportive,
I really enjoyed the process.
You must be sharp at your coding skills for sure,
they are very technical.
