J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez Uber en août 2015
Entretien
The conversation with the person in HR was pleasant enough. He was friendly and nice and asked the usual screening questions. However, the job test included one solitary, vague question and the feedback received was equally unhelpful. The impression I got was that the department was already ready to hire someone else so it wouldn't have mattered what I wrote.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Describe some of the projects you've worked on recently.

The conversation with HR and hiring manager went very well. The next round was asking me to work on a case and sent back my code and PowerPoint to them within 48 hours. They sent me rejection letter a week later. I'm really frustrated with their feedback. They want to hire someone with some kind of skills. The case I worked on had nothing to do with those skills. Every candidate spends lots of time and makes every effort to prepare for job interviews. PLEASE respect other's time and effort.
Le processus a pris 5 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Uber en nov. 2018
Entretien
I had a call with a recruiter, followed by a technical coding interview, a technical research interview and a culture fit interview with current research scientists. All were over the phone/internet.

Question 1
The coding interview was a straight forward question where brute force + dictionary was optimal. This was followed by some slightly harder follow-up questions on modified assumptions about the input data.
The research interview was a pretend first research meeting on a topic given by the interviewer. We brainstormed together and the interviewer probed (fairly lightly) my knowledge on the fields that we touched upon.

Entretien
I did not make it past the first initial call with HR. If I had continued, the process would have included an interview with a manager, a problem to solve, a portfolio review, and an onsite interview
Although I did receive positive feedback from the recruiter during the interview and I was told I was moving on to the next round, this turned out to not be the case.
I'm not entirely sure what went wrong, but it could be that I did not send a thank-you note until the following week, which might have been interpreted as lack of enthusiasm. Regardless of your personal feelings about superficiality, I recommend that in your interview with Uber you act extremely excited about the company and the product. And send a thank you note immediately.
