I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Uber (Amsterdam) in Aug 2022
Interview
Very lengthy process that takes place:
- Initial HR/Recruiter call introducing the role
- Hiring manager interview
- Panel Interview (5 participants)
- 1:1 interviews with each panel member (45min x 5)
I find it to be poor taste and bad practice to have a candidate take part in 6+ hours of interviewing (excluding the preparation time and requests Uber makes of your portfolio/case studies) to then received no feedback for nearly 3 weeks. I had to keep emailing for a response to finally get some form of acknowledgement from Uber.
I completely understand that I might not have been the candidate they were looking for but it's disrespectful to ghost a candidate that participated in 7 interview calls.

There are 6-7 rounds of interviews. First round is a case study round with a designer, which i was able to clear. The second round is a group portfolio round where you need to present 2 case studies within an hour. I was rejected in this round. Other rounds include one on one with all the members of the panel
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (Bengaluru) in Sep 2023
Interview
I had applied on the portal and had a referral. The recruiter reached out to me almost 3 months after I had applied. Had a round of discussion with the hiring manager walking through my work. Had another round of case study presentation with extended audience of cross functional team. After this, I had the one on one discussions with a designer manager, a researcher, content designer lead and director of product. They asked probing questions related to collaboration, process, craft, handling conflict, etc. An offer was made 2 weeks later.
