Senior Software Engineer, iOS Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
I came in and was given a programming assignment for 1.5 hours. Then we went to lunch. I got another hour afterwards to explain it and my design decisions.
The next interview was Data Structures and Algorithms. It was more or less a typical Google-style interview. You can study questions from leetcode.com and you'll be fine.
Then we had an OO Design interview. This is where you really just need experience. Design a game.
Then we had a product and EM discussion. Not sure what I said, but I guess they liked me, because I got the job :)
It is very impressive as to how fast recruiting turns things around. I interviewed and got an offer all in the same week.

Uber Work Experiences
- 5.0Exciting career, epic business, top engineering talentSenior Software Engineer, iOS • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesMay 11, 2015Pros: Very sharp engineers, driven to succeed. Lots of engineers from other top tech companies like Facebook, Google, Apple, Amazon, etc. This gives us the ability to replicate what makes sense, and leave behind what doesn't. It's a fresh start. The overall mission of the company makes total sense. Being a part of an epic disruption story is exciting. Revenues are astronomic, in uncharted territory for a start-up / private company. This makes 2015 an extremely good time to join. I work as hard as any other Silicon Valley engineer. We work hard, but not too hard, and there is work/life balance.Cons: - If you don't live in SF, your commute will suck.
- 3.0Interesting Work, But Losing PurposeSenior Software Engineer • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesAugust 6, 2020Pros: Lots of different problems to work on in different areas. A chance to improve things globally.Cons: Some people will hate you for where you work. The company is shifting away from trying to make the world a better place.
