Interview Process

The phone interview with Uber was quite intense. It started with a brief introduction and then jumped straight into coding questions. The first question was about a robot’s movement on a grid which needed a solution for its distance from the origin. I had to explain my thought process while coding. After solving that, there was a discussion on the approach and alternatives. I felt the interview was challenging but I was able to convey my logic clearly. Overall, it was a good experience!
