Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn for Uber ATG and scheduled a phone call.

The HR phone call discussed the work Uber does, asked general questions about my resume, and Uber's safety model.

Afterwards, a technical phone interview was scheduled using a Codepair link. This was with one of their engineers who asked a standard LeetCode question.

After the phone interview, the recruiter followed up within two days, notifying me if the interview was successful and giving feedback on what I did well.

Then an onsite was scheduled, which consisted of 3 technical and 2 cultural interviews.

The technical interviews consisted of:

  • Standard whiteboard coding
  • System design
  • OOP design

The behavioral interviews consisted of:

  • Standard behavioral questions
  • Resume questions, with a focus on safety.

Questions

Phone: Variation of Largest Islands question.

What does safety mean to you?

Onsite: Variation of Tower/Goal/Robot grid question.

Onsite: Generic design question (e.g., design Sudoku, Battleship, Tic-Tac-Toe, etc.).
