Interview Process
I arrived at Uber’s office and was greeted by the interviewer. We chatted informally for a few minutes before starting the coding problem. The coding challenge was about calculating the distance in a grid, which was well-defined and required clever use of data structures to optimize the solution. After explaining my thought process out loud, I began coding. The interviewer provided hints when I seemed to get stuck, which was helpful. I managed to solve the problem within the time limit, and we discussed edge cases afterwards. Finally, the interviewer gave me feedback and thanked me for my time.
