I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (New York, NY) in Apr 2015
Interview
Overall it was a fast experience. Took two weeks in total. I applied online and a recruiter contacted me over the phone and chatted for like 20 minutes. Seemed like they wanted to hire people very quickly. She told me that the company is hiring at a very quick pace.
Then I did an online analtics test with 32 questions. Time is very limited for the test, you have to think a lot for some questions to get the tricks right and answer properly. It is mostly multiple choice questions and at the end there are 4 free-to-write type of questions (essays for some scenarios like write a letter to drivers).
The test is pretty hard but I prepared very well using online resources so I passed the test. (the recruiter emailed me next day for the good news)
Then I had 2 more onsite interviews. One is a panel like interview at the office and one with a senior hiring manager. Overall these in-office interviews were pretty tough, they are asking real life example questions and expect you to answer them like an experienced Uber employee, which you are not :)
Some questions from the in-office meetings: How would you start in a new city? How would you make more drivers available? What is the best incentive to give to a driver to have him work for more hours during weekdays? etc.
After these two in-office interviews, I got an email from the recruiter that they decided to go in another direction :( But overall it was a nice experience.

Interview process was typical. Asking leadership, teamwork, and case questions to see how well you problem solve on the spot. The interview process was 3-4 steps, the last being a round robbin with many of the similar roles.

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (New York, NY) in Jun 2018
Interview
I applied to Uber on their careers website. It took about a month for a recruiter to reach out to start the process. The process consisted of a phone screen with a recruiter, a skills test, a video conference with someone from the hiring team, and an in person round. I did not make it past the video conference stage. The phone screen was pretty standard. The skills test was timed (2 hours) assessing excel skills using mock data related to the Uber business and critical/strategic thinking skills based on data and general knowledge of Uber's business. The video conference contained questions regarding past data experience and Uber business-specific questions. I found it odd that candidates needed to know so much about Uber's business practices going into interviews, especially in areas that are not public knowledge. The process was pretty quick after the initial contact from the recruiter (2 weeks).
