Was given the wrong phone screen so didn't have time to prep for an unexpected technical interview. Still did decently.
Found out I didn't pass, got feedback - was docked points for not knowing a specific algorithm by name [though knew how to solve the problem], and also the interviewer misrepresented my answers [initially had the "wrong" answer after mishearing him say 0.9 instead of 0.99, walked him through my calculation for Bayes Theorem, corrected it after he clarified, and got the right answer, with his confirmation. But he wrote that I got the question wrong...?]
Recruiter was kind, interview was easy, yet somehow turned into a miserable experience because feedback was simply inaccurate.

Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela Uber (San Jose, CA) em mai. de 2026
Entrevista
My interview started with a stats coding round where I was asked to code for expected value for a problem and the second interview was a case study which was quite easy

Pergunta 1
Expected value for a dice problem and a case study about a Uber problem
The process was smooth and well organized. A recruiter initially reached out, followed by a first round consisting of two interviews—one with the team manager and another with a data scientist, both engaging and informative.
Failed at technical screening round. Recruiter told me I will be tested on SQL, but I got tested on Python as well. Did not prepare well for that interview and didn't get moved forward
