I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Uber (Hyderabad) in Feb 2016
Interview
Totally chaotic and unresponsive on HR part. Firstly, they didn't schedule the interview until I call them up for an update. I lost count of how many times I called them. Then the interview got postponed twice as the interviewer does not show up at the scheduled time. Finally after so much hassle, I got to give the interview but they don't have the basic courtesy to respond back with the status(It has been over a month). Normally, I would have assumed that I didn't get through but with this level of irresponsibility, they might have never taken feedback from interviewer as well!
The only bright side is that I enjoyed the questions in the interview. Probably one of the elaborate interview at screening level. Unfortunately, I can't recollect the exact questions as it has been more than a month. Will update the post if and when I remember.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There is a notepad which accepts only four operations:
1. Character X
2. select all
3. copy
4. paste
Given n number of operations, provide the sequence of choices that gives maximum characters in the notepad.
The interview process started with a recruiter screen where they covered my background and the role's expectations. Next, I had a phone screen focused on technical skills where I faced a DSA question on frequent elements in an array. I had practiced similar problems on prachub.com beforehand, which helped me tackle it effectively. The technical rounds consisted of coding and system design questions, including rate limiting. Finally, I had a behavioral interview where they assessed cultural fit. Overall, the experience was average, but I received and accepted an offer.
I applied online. I interviewed at Uber in May 2026
Interview
The interview process begins with an initial BFS screening to evaluate overall fit and relevant experience, followed by three virtual onsite interviews that focus on coding ability, an in-depth discussion of technical background and past projects, as well as behavioral and collaboration-related questions to assess communication and teamwork skills.
