I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Uber in Aug 2014
Interview
Applied via Uber's company website. Within a week I received an email asking to for my availability for a phone interview with an Uber recruiter. The call was 30 minutes and consisted of general background questions, and my experience using Excel.
More specifically, they asked me for specific instances when I processed data via Excel, and what pushback I anticipated experiencing if I were introducing Uber to the city I was applying for.
Following the phone interview, I was asked to take a 2 hour analytics exam, which was harder than I expected even though I'm fairly experienced in Excel. The questions aren't difficult if you had the time to work them out, but the time limit makes it more difficult. Know pivot tables, and don't waste too much time of the first 10 questions. If needed, skip questions you can't figure out, and take care of the final 22 questions before spending time on the questions you don't immediately know.
I passed this, and am now prepping for a video call with the GM at the location I'm applying to. We'll see how that goes.
FYI, regarding the question of "Did you get an offer," I'm answering "Yes, but I declined" since I'm not completely sure how things will turn out. So far so good though.

Interview process was typical. Asking leadership, teamwork, and case questions to see how well you problem solve on the spot. The interview process was 3-4 steps, the last being a round robbin with many of the similar roles.

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (New York, NY) in Jun 2018
Interview
I applied to Uber on their careers website. It took about a month for a recruiter to reach out to start the process. The process consisted of a phone screen with a recruiter, a skills test, a video conference with someone from the hiring team, and an in person round. I did not make it past the video conference stage. The phone screen was pretty standard. The skills test was timed (2 hours) assessing excel skills using mock data related to the Uber business and critical/strategic thinking skills based on data and general knowledge of Uber's business. The video conference contained questions regarding past data experience and Uber business-specific questions. I found it odd that candidates needed to know so much about Uber's business practices going into interviews, especially in areas that are not public knowledge. The process was pretty quick after the initial contact from the recruiter (2 weeks).
