Recently, I got an Interview opportunity at Uber for SDE role. I have discussed my detailed experience as follows:
Coding Round (February):
Uber visited your college to hire for an SDE intern roleâmultiple students registered for the same opportunity.
Conducted a coding round with 3 DSA questions:
- Burst Balloons
- Weighted Random Numbers
- An easy question related to finding the maximum sum.
Interestingly, I solved 2 questions completely and 1 partially. Selected for the interview process.
Round 1: DSA:
The interviewer asked me to introduce myself and share insights about his team.
I presented a question initially related to binary search.
I discussed the binary search approach for around 30 minutes.
After that given a helpful hint to solve it using the sliding window technique.
You solved it using the hint, and the interviewer was satisfied.
Asked a question similar to Pacific Atlantic Water Flow, and you provided the pseudo-code due to time constraints.
Round 2: DSA + CS Fundamental:
Focused on topics like Threads & Object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts
Asked a medium-level tree question (similar to Maximum Width of Binary Tree on Leetcode), which you solved easily.
Overall, I felt confident about your performance in this round.
Round 3: HR Round:
This was focused on my current project.
Numerous cross-questions to assess your hands-on experience and knowledge.
Behavioural questions to understand your approach and mindset.
Results:
Unfortunately, I was not selected for the role & I know that rejection as part of lifeâs journey. So, just move on.
