The first interview was with an HR person. The interview started with him listening to my job history. Halfway through the interview, he asked about salary. When I said what I was making, he said that they couldn't match that and asked if there was flexibility. He quoted a number that was 20% less than than what I currently make and said that was the upper end of the range. At the end of the interview, he asked if I wouldn't mind doing a homework assignment. He said that the short homework assignment takes most people "about 4 hours to do" and could be done "in multiple evenings". I probably spent 6-7 hours writing it up and thought the end result was pretty good. The next day I was emailed a boiler plate rejection letter without explanation. I'm curious if other people had similar results to what I experienced.

Question 1
There is a data point that indicates that there are more Uber drop-offs at the airport than pick-ups from the airport. Why is this the case and what would you do within the product to change that?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2013
Interview
The process is very generalized even though the product team structure has a feature orientation. The pre onsite process entails : 1 HR Screener, 1 HWK assignment and 1 phone interview with a PM. The HR partner was not very professional and often took a week to return any emails after initiating the interview process. The phone interview itself focused on the basic PM questions (name a few products and explain what you like don't like and what you would do better, what else would you change with Uber, what is your process like at your current company). The evaluation criteria was not really clear and the interview was conducted by a junior level PM. The Product team is very young and does not boast any Google/Facebook pedigree on the team.
