I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (Chicago, IL) in Jul 2021
Interview
I applied on the company website and was contacted by a recruiter.
Hopped on a quick call with him to discuss the role and the process.
Next step was an interview with the hiring manager.
I heard back pretty quickly and hopped on another call with the recruiter so that we could prep for the case study interview.
The case study was a takeaway problem that Uber could face. Used to understand your thinking process, a lot of questioning back and forth.
Unfortunately I didn't make it past the case study round but I was given feedback in interview about what I could improve on and that was really helpful.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What kind of metrics did you track in your role, data to make a decision, etc.
Recruiter, Hiring Manager, Jam (which is too much work), Peer, Engineering, Data, and Skip Level.
A lot of people you need to impress and need to align. They seem to be very afraid of pull the trigger and make a decision.

Question 1
Mostly about past experiences. Also, some product sense and product strategy questions in their specific area. Very repetitive.
It was okay until the "Jam" session. Recruiter was very responsive and nice until not anymore after the hiring manager decide to no move forward.
Jam session was very confusing and misleading, with barely no questions, no guidance jeopardizing the flow.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Uber (Amsterdam)
Interview
The process starts with the HR screening interview, followed by an interview with the hiring manager, followed by a take-home assignment you are given for a week (7 days), and followed 2 or 3 more interviews
