I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (Pittsburgh, PA) in May 2015
Interview
It was just the first round phone screen. HR was not professional at all and didn't ask any questions, just me going through resume and ask questions.... and HR respond very shortly to my questions, it seems the HR didn't know much about the role and team.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Uber (New York, NY)
Interview
Employee referral. I received interview a few days later for phone screen and scheduled another interview for hiring manager. I was given one exercise to work on. During the second interview, it was really bad experience because I had only 3-4 minutes to go through the exercise. I had some new ideas to add and some problems to discuss about the exercise, but I had no time. Moreover, I don't know what he used to call, the quality of calling was bad. You cannot hear clearly sometimes.
