I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2016
Interview
HR screen + 1 hr phone interview + 5 hr onsite interview.
Phone interview is a graph problem.
Onsite interview consists of 5 interviews. 3 of them are algorithm and data structure, 1 is system architecture, 1 is open-ended question. Among the 3 algorithm interviews, 1 is string, 1 is graph and 1 is implementing a data structure.
Very smooth, interviewers were friendly, on-site and all interviews in the same day. Managed to grab lunch and talk about the company culture. Good guidance throughout the process. Two coding, two system design, one bar raiser, one hiring manager.
