I was contacted by a recruiter via email to schedule a technical phone interview. The recruiter also sent me a list of Software Engineering positions that were available and a description of the languages/technologies I would need to know. This was helpful in preparing for the interview.
The interviewer contacted me on time. It started with an introduction and a couple questions about my resume. Then the coding portion of the interview began. I had about 20 minutes to complete it. It was a fairly challenging question that tested your knowledge of OOP principles. I struggled a bit, but the interviewer kindly walked me through the parts where I was making mistakes.
Overall, it was a great experience. Although my interview process with Uber ended at this point, I learned a lot and I'll be able to use this experience to improve.
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.
