I applied online. I interviewed at Uber in May 2018
Interview
One of the most unprofessional and non communicative interview experiences I've ever had. I interviewed for Uber Eats. I completed a basic phone interview with a recruiter, and she emailed me back the next day saying she wanted to move forward to do a virtual interview with a hiring manager, and she asked for my availability for the next week. I emailed her back on the same day, and received no response. I heard nothing from anyone at Uber for a month (even though I sent another follow up after 2 weeks). Then, I got an email at 11 pm from another recruiter who wanted to schedule a phone interview, but said it had to be the next day. I emailed back to clarify because I was unable to schedule an interview so last minute, and I got no response. A week later I received a phone call out of the blue from the second recruiter. He told me he wanted to have a phone screen right then (even though I couldn't, I had class), and that he wanted me to do a virtual interview the next day (and clearly didn't read my resume, as he was insistent that the interview be on site even though the position is in Chicago and I live in New York). He told me it was crucial I complete a sales assessment for the role, but that I only had 2 hours to do it, and stressed how strict the deadline was - even though he waited until two hours before to call me and tell me what was going on. He had no idea that I had done a phone interview a month ago. While I was in class, he started TEXTING me interview questions, which I felt was extremely unprofessional and strange. I withdrew from the interview process because I was not interested in working at such a non communicative and disorganized company. I received a condescending email back from him.

Question 1
Basic interview questions. Tell me about a time you made a mistake and fixed it, why do you want to work for Uber Eats, etc.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (New York, NY) in Sep 2017
Interview
I applied online in September 2017.
After applying about a week later I received email asking for an phone interview.
The phone interview was pretty basic. They just wanted to know a little bit more about your background and I was told I would hear back in about two weeks if I had moved on to the One-site interview.
I received an email asking the times I was available to come in for an on site interview.
Prior to the interview a recruiter will send you an email asking you to do an activity. There are two parts to the activity. The first one is that you must create an email to send to a restaurant owner asking them if they would be interested in working with UberEATS. The second activity is that you must create a 3 slide presentation to show to the client why they should work with UberEATS.
I was told to have it sent in before the on site interview and also print the email exercise and presentation out. I was told to prepare to pitch and present.
I was told to get to the office 10 minutes early. I was expecting a tour, but that didn't happen. Which is fine.
I interviewed with two people during the onsite interview. The first one was with the sales manager. He was super cool and chill. He didn't ask any of those standard interview questions. He just wanted to know if you could do the job and then we went over my experience. Although I was told that I was going to be pitching and presenting that didn't happen. Maybe the manager forgot, I'm not entirely sure. I also didn't get any feedback about the two activities that I had to do.
The second part of the interview was to see if I was a cultural fit. It was basically a conversation. She just wanted to know what my goals were. Nothing to hard about it at all.
About 3 weeks later I got an offer letter. I'm super excited to start.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What do you like about Uber?
Can you name a time you had to lead?
Telephone interview was scheduled for 23/10 - didn't receive the call at the scheduled time. Followed up with an email to find out what happened, and the response I received (next day!) was an apology for not getting in touch and that the role was filled! Quite unprofessional!
