I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2019
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter and I asked for 2 months to prepare for the interview.
I had the prone screen in which I proposed two approaches and I solved both but it was not the optimal solution.
The recruiter told me that they were not sure if I should pass to the onsite, so they scheduled another phone screen.
I was expecting another algorithm challenge but it was more like a class design pattern problem, I didn't do well and I didn't pass to the next steps.

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.
