      Data Scientist Interview

      10 Oct 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      Contacted by recruiter, 2 different 1 hour technical phone screens (the second lasted only 30 minutes), and invited on site. On site interview consisted of 6 different 45 minute interviews and a summary with the recruiter.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The interviews, as I recall: (1) Someone from finance department, covering collaboration w/ members outside of the core group. (2) Hiring manager asked questions around behavioral and problem solving approach; critical thinking; fit for team and group. (3) Product manager asked questions on product intuition and product impact. Being able to connect the problems you’re solving back to the business. Are you able to communicate with a non-technical audience. Some questions about metrics. (4) Coding -- one data manipulation question using Python or R. Could have used SQL to answer it as well. One algorithm/data structure question which honestly isn't really relevant to what someone w/ a statistical modeling background does, but seems to be included these days nonetheless. (5) Data science interview -- met with data scientist team leader who asked questions regarding how to define a given data science problem, what kind of metrics to use, models you'd consider using to answer such questions, etc. Some of the questions were experimental in nature, others were more machine-learning-esque. Of the latter category, would have been beneficial to at least be aware of online learning techniques and perhaps some time series models given the temporal nature of the data. (6) Interview with person not on the same team as the group I interviewed with. This person was supposed to ask me to explain my research and projects and experience according to the recruiter, but wound up just asking me questions about their own work, unexpectedly.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Uber (San Jose, CA) in May 2026

      Interview

      My interview started with a stats coding round where I was asked to code for expected value for a problem and the second interview was a case study which was quite easy

      I interviewed at Uber

      Interview

      The process was smooth and well organized. A recruiter initially reached out, followed by a first round consisting of two interviews—one with the team manager and another with a data scientist, both engaging and informative.

      Interview

      Failed at technical screening round. Recruiter told me I will be tested on SQL, but I got tested on Python as well. Did not prepare well for that interview and didn't get moved forward
