      Software Engineer Interview

      Apr 25, 2013
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2013

      Interview

      I was referred to Uber by an acquaintance. After a standard phone screen, I was asked to complete a coding exercise that would take 6–8 hours. While I approve of coding exercises as an interviewing technique, a working day is a rather large time commitment so early in an interviewing process. I politely responded that I would like to see how my other interviews (which were much further along) conclude before completing the exercise. I received a rather rude and terse response from the in-house recruiter: "Doesn't sound like we are the right fit for what you are looking for." I'm happy that I did not interview further.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Please find our standard web test below! Code Test! Bam! Uber clients are able to store favorite locations for easy pickup requests. Create a backend and a frontend for managing favorite locations. This is a simple exercise, but organize, design and test your code as if it were going into production. When you’re done, host it somewhere and provide us with a URL and a tarball or Git repo with the code. Backend Using the language (Python preferred), libraries and data store of your choosing, create a JSON in/out RESTful API for managing favorite locations. Stay away from Django or Rails, but microframeworks like Flask (preferred), Sinatra or Express are fine. Attributes of a favorite location object include: id, lat, lng, address (e.g. 800 Market Street, San Francisco, CA 94114), name (e.g. Work) Frontend Using JavaScript, Backbone.js and any other libraries of your choosing, create an interface to access the API. User should be able to: Create a new location Read/view a location, and a collection of all locations Update an existing location Delete a location The UX is up to you, with a couple of constraints: Incorporate a map Geocode the address so the user is not required to enter lat/lng Extras If you like, get creative and do whatever else you like on the backend and/or frontend to show off.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Uber in May 2026

      Interview

      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.
