I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Uber in Jan 2019
Interview
Recruiter reached out to schedule a phone screen a week later. It was followed by the hiring manager phone interview a few days later. The process was disorganized. I ended up being screened for a different role from what I applied for. This was not clear from the scheduling process.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you had to address an employee performance issue.
I applied online. I interviewed at Uber (Ciudad de Mexico) in Oct 2015
Interview
Applied viaLinked in, when the reached me out I did a first phone screening with the recruiter, then I was interviewed by the hiring manager and then by 8 interviews from different stakeholders, finally I prepare a business case to demonstrate how I would manage real scenarios. Was a great experience since all had different angles and questions for me.
One of the worse candidate experience ever.
Approached via LinkedIn by an internal recruiter.
Flattering inmail... Flattered & interested, I answered positively on the same day to have a phone interview. Reply from the recruited arrived... 5 days later, after a reminder I sent. We eventually set a call for the end of the week. The recruiter did not even show up in the call !!
Then, we eventually had this call, which went well, with a round two to plan (phone interview with the Hiring manager).
I proposed many different slots, early in the morning, evening, during the day - everytime the recruiter answered with 2 days of delay, which of course did not help to keep the slots free.
After 2 weeks, I received an email stating (not asking !) I was not motivated as I was not able to propose suitable slots and it was a proof I was actually not motivated... really ?? I answered this email, proposing another slot and asking some questions. It has never been answered.
Overall, this is the worse Recruitment experience I ever had. Not respectful, not reactive. For a company like Uber which is in the need of improving its image as an employer it's sad... ON the one hand, I regret not to have been able to go further as this experience shows there is a real room for improvement, on the other hand, I am happy it did not work, as this proved, on their side, that they are not ready to change.
However, I can recognize that this may be have linked to the recruiter, and not to the company itself.
