Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Uber (São Paulo, ) en oct 2022
Entrevista
The general process consists of 4 rounds of interviews: 1. An intro call, which was great, and the interviewer gave me some tips for the next rounds and introduced me a little bit about the position. 2. Supposedly to be a technical evaluation on CodeSignal/Miro System Design, but for 2 attempts the interviewers didn't show up, I waited for 20 minutes both times and no one showed up. I withdrew from the process. The other phases would be: 3. System Design, 4. Behavioral meeting.

Pregunta 1
What was your most challenging project? Tell us a little more about your recent experiences.
The phone screen lasted about 30 minutes and began with general questions about my background before diving into technical topics. I was asked to solve a DSA question on finding the top K frequent elements, discussing both the min-heap and bucket-sort approaches. Surprisingly, I had recently practiced a similar problem on the algorithm section of PracHub, which helped me articulate my thought process clearly. The interview continued with an onsite where I tackled system design and behavioral questions, and overall, the experience was straightforward and positive, leading to an offer that I happily accepted.

Top K Frequent Elements: given an integer array and integer k, return the k most frequent elements. Walk through both the min-heap approach (O(n log k) time) and the bucket-sort approach (O(n) time), then discuss the trade-offs in time, space, and which one you'd pick for a streaming variant where new numbers keep arriving.
Surprisingly, the interview felt quite straightforward, especially for a senior role. I started with a technical screen, where I was asked to design an Uber Eats cart service. It caught me off guard initially, but then I remembered a specific mock I had practiced on PracHub that was nearly spot-on with this scenario. The final round included some behavioral questions, and although I received an offer, I ultimately decided to decline. Overall, it was a positive experience.
