Candidatei-me por indicação de um funcionário. O processo levou 5 dias. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Uber.
Entrevista
I was introduced to the recruiter by a friend and had a phone interview scheduled within a couple of business days. Spoke with the manager for one of Uber's data science teams. I was told by the recruiter to have internet access and a computer (which I thought was for a coding challenge) but we mostly went over my background. Towards the end he asked business oriented questions that relate to data science and machine learning.
We went in depth into the projects that I completed in graduate school and for work, so I suggest being able to articulate past projects well.
Overall it was a good experience as the hiring manager was really engaged and professional throughout the interview.
Perguntas de entrevista [1]
Pergunta 1
There is a pool of people who took Uber rides from two cities that were close in proximity, for example Menlo Park and Palo Alto, and any data you could think of could be collected. What data would you collect so that the city the passenger took a ride from could be determined?
If some type of supervised classification algorithm was used to split the two populations, for example Support Vector Machine, what type of business decision would you make on points that appear close to the hyperplane?

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
