      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      22 Jan 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2020

      Interview

      Uber's interview process can be confusing. It starts with a take home assignment. If you clear this, it should be an onsite with a specific team. But it's in the hands of the recruiter to decide your next steps. In my case, the recruiter came back to me a week later saying that my profile is not right for a backend role. When I mentioned that I am a backend engineer, she said I need to change my resume to show that. I changed the resume (added 4 words and changed my title to say backend) and suddenly this was a profile that managers liked - or so I was told. I think my resume was not shown to an engineering manager initially and once I added the word backend, it was shown. Then I had an onsite - 2 technical, 1 design, 1 bar raiser and 1 manager round. Design round seemed to concentrate highly on DB - which DB within NoSQL - trade offs, etc. Overall the engineers seemed decent. But the recruiters were pretty inconsiderate with rude remarks like - your profile is a junior profile, we don't consider internships (I have no internship exp but 8+ years of full time exp), we only want backend engineers, etc. They basically look for keywords in your resume highlighted and bolded. If not present, they do as they please.

      Question 1

      Leetcode for technical rounds should be enough. For design definitely concentrate on DB. They go into a lot of details.

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Uber

      Interview

      Surprisingly, the interview felt quite straightforward, especially for a senior role. I started with a technical screen, where I was asked to design an Uber Eats cart service. It caught me off guard initially, but then I remembered a specific mock I had practiced on PracHub that was nearly spot-on with this scenario. The final round included some behavioral questions, and although I received an offer, I ultimately decided to decline. Overall, it was a positive experience.

      Application

      I interviewed at Uber

      Interview

      2 coding phases + 1 system design + 1 behavior. It followed the Big Tech interview process. The interviewers were nice and supportive, I really enjoyed the process. You must be sharp at your coding skills for sure, they are very technical.
