I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Referred by a friend. One round of phone interview and then onsite. All my interviewers were pleasant to talk with and knowledgable. Phone interview was very simple. I was kind of surprised at the questions he asked. On-site was 4 one hour back to back interviews. I heard back in less than a week for my phone and heard back the day after for my on-site.

The interview process begins with an initial BFS screening to evaluate overall fit and relevant experience, followed by three virtual onsite interviews that focus on coding ability, an in-depth discussion of technical background and past projects, as well as behavioral and collaboration-related questions to assess communication and teamwork skills.
