I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Uber in Jun 2019
Interview
Phone screen with recruiter asking general questions about background and resume.
Technical screen with engineer from hiring team with code challenge.
Onsite with multiple rounds, coding challenge, example scenarios, etc.

Question 1
What makes you the best candidate for this position?
one full-day interview on data analytics. interviewed with different departments. one session with one of the seniors was very challenging, we were not using some programming language and could not understand each other.

Question 1
A case study. Uber asked me how I would solve the problem. I told them the way I'd construct the problem and the solution. but as feedback, they told me they were expecting a detailed plan, step by step, that I failed to do so.
Was given the wrong phone screen so didn't have time to prep for an unexpected technical interview. Still did decently.
Found out I didn't pass, got feedback - was docked points for not knowing a specific algorithm by name [though knew how to solve the problem], and also the interviewer misrepresented my answers [initially had the "wrong" answer after mishearing him say 0.9 instead of 0.99, walked him through my calculation for Bayes Theorem, corrected it after he clarified, and got the right answer, with his confirmation. But he wrote that I got the question wrong...?]
Recruiter was kind, interview was easy, yet somehow turned into a miserable experience because feedback was simply inaccurate.

Question 1
[some simple application of Bayes Theorem]
["have you heard of XYZ algorithm?"]
