I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Uber in Jan 2015
Interview
Applied through an employee referral, passed the initial phone screen but failed at the onsite interview. I was unhappy about the fact that the recruiter matched me to a very specific team without consulting my preference. And the worst part is even though the interview is very specific, the recruiter lied to me before the interview saying that it was going to be general. No response is given when I asked why she didn't tell me the truth. Terrible experience.
Very smooth, interviewers were friendly, on-site and all interviews in the same day. Managed to grab lunch and talk about the company culture. Good guidance throughout the process. Two coding, two system design, one bar raiser, one hiring manager.
