I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (Frankenmuth, MI) in Nov 2015
Interview
There was no in-person interview. I simply went online and completed the driver account setup. Uber then did a thorough background check which took about two weeks. In the meantime I was able to provide my identification, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance all by uploading photos by smart phone. I then set up my banking information, as all payments from riders are made electronically. It was a very user friendly process and I am now driving.

Interview
The hiring and interview process is pretty straight-forward. After going to Uber.com. They require an applicant to enter in the necessary information. Submit for a background check and grant permission for the driving record check. Simultaneously while you submit for that you upload insurance documents and identification. Once that gets approved you have to take a picture for the app and download the app. All of the necessary information is tied to your account by Uber. Once that is done you become ready to get and your car and pickup riders.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Uber (Austin, TX) in Jan 2015
Interview
Very simple, take pics on your phone of car, registration and insurance, and your ID. Wait for them to complete background check. The process can be done strictly on your phone and is very easy. If you have a clean 3 year driving record and a clean criminal history, they will take you.
