Contacted via LinkedIn, then I had a brief discussion via phone where the recruiter (or Sourcer in Ubers language) explained the role in 10 minutes and I covered my CV in 5 minutes. The interesting thing is that she did not ask for my cv although she apparently knew me only from LinkedIn. I passed the call and was told she will send me a link to an online analytical test I had to complete within 2 hours. I did this some days later, basically lots of excel number crunching - not very difficult if you are used to working with databases but I did not have too much time left at the end (I am not used to working with excel these days so I lack experience). I should have passed the test but I still only received a standard email replying I did not fit their role without any explanation. My only guess is that they did not continue because of my current salary (probably too high), the salary information and notice period were the only questions she asked on top of infos from LinkedIn profile

Absolutely horrible interview process. Uber claims to have a new face - but you can clearly tell something is wrong in their operations by how little they value prospective hires. Here is a timeline of events that happened for me: 1) Started conversations with Uber - and had a call scheduled for mid October. Interviewer did not show up to my first interview and I had to follow-up. 2) Had my first round interview a few days later- passed and took my technical assessment - passed that as well. 3) I received confirmation on 10/30 that I was through to the next round. 4) I followed up 3 times and did not hear back until 11/11 (~2 week gap) where I was told something will be scheduled asap 5) On 11/13 I was scheduled, with less than 24 hours notice to an interview, at a time I never said I could make. That really shocked me - I've never had an interview scheduled to a time that wasn't previously confirmed by me. Uber just assumed I was free at this time. I had to shift a lot around on my plate to make that happen and started "cramming" for my interview. Additionally, I was simply given the name of the person I was interviewing with. I was not told this would be my future boss, and likely the most important interview I have. I would have absolutely pushed this interview if given that information. 6) My interviewer showed up to my 30 minute interview late, compacted our already short time together, and refused to give me extra time. I got to speak SO little about myself or why I cared about this opportunity I feel that the combination of the things above truly put me at a disadvantage to other candidates (unless all candidates face these same challenges) and made for one of my less memorable interviews. Interviews are challenging enough on their own and a serious candidate put a lot of heart / effort / thought / time into this process. It would be awesome to feel that reciprocated on the opposite side. Scheduling, timeliness, and informing the interviewee of functional relation to the interviewer are key areas that IMO - should always be clearly communicated to the applicant. These were huge red flags to general operational issues this company faces. Glad things turned out the way they did.
