I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Uber in Sep 2016
Interview
Excel based analytics test. Which had some subjective questions as well.
It was followed by an interaction with an operations manager in my city.
Got a mail afterwards that they had decided to go in another direction

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Uber in Oct 2016
Interview
Applied online and received an email in a couple of days for initial screening. Pretty standard as mentioned in other posts. That led to the Uber Analytics Test V3.1. Thought I did well on this as I saved screenshots of the entire 32 questions except maybe 5 and the CSV files. Went back and double checked my solutions but surprisingly have not heard back from them in quite some time.

Question 1
"In order to incentivize our best driver partners to use the platform next week, you are assessing the cost of the following......."
You have to derive the answer from the given CSV dataset. The test is challenging specifically due to the time limit. They also force you to have to develop the context before being able to come up with the answer. I felt pretty ready for the test until I opened the file and it just hit me that there would not be enough time for this. You need to be doing very similar data modeling on a daily basis to be able to navigate thru the entire exam in 2 hour sitting.
P.S: For the most part, the practice material selling on the web is outdated so you might be better off trying similar exercises on your own rather than paying for those.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Uber
Interview
First round is a 30 minute conversation with HR on the phone. The HR contact I spoke with on the phone did not know very much about the company. She got the dates of multiple product launches wrong.
Second round is a timed 2 hour test. The test is not difficult. But, do your homework and get familiar with their terminology (i.e. eyes, zeros, etc.)
Third round is a 30 minute Skype interview with the hiring manager.

Describe a time you didn't agree with your manager and how you handled the situation.
