      Backend Engineer Interview

      13 Oct 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I interviewed at Uber

      Interview

      The worst interview ever. After sending my CV the first screening happened, it was containing only behavior questions and a high-level architecture question (PostgreSQL vs. MongoDB). Then I was asked to solve a problem at home. After submitting my home task, no signals for 3 weeks, my recrutier ignores my email and skype.

      Friendly process that helps you understand what they do and what you will be helping with in the company. The only issue is that sometimes it feels very stretched out.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Ciudad de Mexico
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (Ciudad de Mexico) in Jan 2022

      Interview

      The interview process for a backend engineer begins with a screening of applications followed by a technical assessment involving an online coding test. This is followed by technical interviews covering data structures, algorithms, system design, and architecture. A behavioral interview assesses soft skills and cultural fit, while a project review allows candidates to showcase their past work

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      managerial interview focuses on collaboration and business alignment, and a cross-functional collaboration interview involves other team members. A final interview discusses long-term goals and vision alignment, followed by reference checks and the offer negotiation stage
