Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Uber (San Francisco, CA) en ene 2015
Entrevista
I came in, and was given a programming assignment for 1.5 hours. Then we went to lunch. I got another hour afterwards to explain it and my design decisions.
The next interview was Data Structures and Algorithms. It was more or less a typical Google-style interview. You can study questions from leetcode.com and you'll be fine.
Then we had an OO Design interview. This is where you really just need experience. Design a game.
Then we had a product and EM discussion. Not sure what I said, but I guess they liked me cuz I got the job :-)
It is very impressive as to how fast recruiting turns things around. I interviewed and got an offer all in the same week.
Primeira entrevista com o recrutador: Nada diferente do comum, perguntas sobre sua experiencia no geral, duas perguntas técnicas simples, e te explicam o processo.
Depois disso, participei de um live coding. Te instruem que será no estilo Leet Code, mas no meu caso era algo mais simples, implementar um sisteminha com tres pré requisitos, em que voce deve justificar o porque estar usando cada estrutura e sua lógica. O entrevistador te ajuda como um rubber duck.
Não prossegui para as próximas entrevistas.

Entrevista
The interview process was structured and multi-round. It started with an online coding assessment followed by a live technical interview. The focus was on data structures/algorithms (trees, BST, recursion), system design, and practical problem-solving. The final round included an applied system design session and a few iOS-specific questions to test depth in mobile development. The process overall tested problem-solving, scalability thinking, and ability to explain reasoning clearly.
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
given an N-ary tree, print the boundary nodes in anti-clockwise order.
• In a Binary Search Tree, find the value closest to a given double (recursively).
• Implement a rate limiting API algorithm; extend the discussion into iOS-related implementation details.
• System design: build a dating app like Tinder, focusing on scalability, user matching, and real-time performance.

Entrevista
All technical rounds passed, but the manager one statement of "this candidate has no big picture" kicked me out. If the manager has veto, why not setting him as the 1st round...? The behavioral round was too subjective, and it overwhelms the technical scores.
