I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Uber in Dec 2015
Interview
The position I was interviewing for was in Chennai and I was referred by an employee who is in the same role within the organization. Step 1 was the analytical test. As most of the other reviews mention, you need to be good with excel and quickly understand the expectations from the question. I needed the 2 undisturbed hours completely for me to finish this test and I would suggest the same for anybody taking the test. Uber was amazingly quick (less than 3 days) in letting me know that I had passed the test and qualified for the 2nd round.
The second round of interview was with a Launcher in the Uber team and the focus of the interview was mainly to see if I was a viable candidate who can work independently and is confident and diligent enough to launch Uber's services in a city. I felt the expectation from the candidate is to own the role and truly believe that they are working as part of a company, that is changing the way transportation industry works. If you are going to be applying for this role in a specific city, then you MUST know the local language and you WILL be expected to talk to local taxi drivers and commercial license owners in the local language to convince them to use Uber. I was asked to do a role play as to how I will communicate to a potential driver partner in Tamil. The interviewer came across as a person who knew what he was talking about.
Overall, a very positive experience that gave me a good peak into the kind of motivation that Uber is looking for. I wish I was better prepared to answer the questions.

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).
