I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2015
Interview
The interview process started through an initial contact on LinkedIn from a recruiter, then I had a phone call with the recruiter and then a second call with a PM at the company.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was invited to complete what they called a "homework assignment", which was a very lengthy and challenging process describing a very specific project that was very relevant to the position. I spent a huge amount of time preparing a very thorough presentation (roughly 20 hours of work) However, there was no option to present this and it was submitted in the blind through their site. 3 days after submitting, I received an email from the original recruiter saying that they were 'going in a different direction' (para-phrasing) Super frustrated that there was no option to present this in person. I would recommend to any future applicants that DO NOT SUBMIT THIS without having an option to present this in person or over the phone with a hiring manager.
Recruiter, Hiring Manager, Jam (which is too much work), Peer, Engineering, Data, and Skip Level.
A lot of people you need to impress and need to align. They seem to be very afraid of pull the trigger and make a decision.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mostly about past experiences. Also, some product sense and product strategy questions in their specific area. Very repetitive.
It was okay until the "Jam" session. Recruiter was very responsive and nice until not anymore after the hiring manager decide to no move forward.
Jam session was very confusing and misleading, with barely no questions, no guidance jeopardizing the flow.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Uber (Ámsterdam)
Interview
The process starts with the HR screening interview, followed by an interview with the hiring manager, followed by a take-home assignment you are given for a week (7 days), and followed 2 or 3 more interviews

Question 1
Lots of behavioral "tell me about the time when" questions
