I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Uber (New Delhi) in Jul 2021
Interview
two rounds of problem-solving. Will ask you to solve one problem and code it up in each round of interview. Finally, in hr round, you will be asked very generic hr round questions and a little more about system design and oops concepts
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
First round: there is a dictionary of m words and some string start is given. Transform start string by changing one character at a time such that the intermediate word formed is available inside the dictionary. Now after performing some least number of transformations task is to change start inti some end string. Print all such possible transformations ie. write each step of transformation in a single complete way of transforming.
The OA was really hard. It contained three question,
ALL OF THEM WERE FROM DP.
First one was a variation of knapsack problem, which i solved (medium-hard)
and the remaining two questions were from 2D DP.
I was not selected :((
Good, it was tough, and I didn't get through. There were three questions, two of which were string-based, hashing and slicing were involved, and then there was a greedy question as well.
Dual-round interview format where the first round assessed Data Structures and Algorithms skills along with HR behavioral fit, and the second round covered Low-Level System Design concepts with an additional HR conversation.

Got a question with like BFS + Binary search kind of like Monsters (CSES)
Had to solved in 45 Min , also got some questions around HR which were normal like challenges, how to handle conflict
