I was referred internally and felt lucky that the questions I got were standard interview questions. **Phone Screen:** I solved LeetCode 362 in 25 minutes. I spent another 10 minutes discussing tradeoffs, such as when to clear the queue, how to handle backgrou...

I was asked to write code to evaluate simple addition and subtraction expressions given as strings. The interviewer provided a few examples: "add(1,2)" -> 3 "sub(3,1)" -> 2 "add(1, sub(3,1))" -> 3 I chose to use backtracking. The first three characters determi...
#### Phone Screen The phone screen was an OOD / data structure design question. The problem was roughly: given a stream of visitor records, where each record contains a visitor name and a timestamp, design a system that can answer queries for a given timestamp...
I had two interview rounds. It seemed like coding wasn't the main focus; instead, the emphasis was on the case study and machine learning system design. **Round 1:** The interviewer presented a scenario where Uber Eats deliveries sometimes involve very remote,...
### Phone Screen The phone screen consisted of a 30-minute discussion about my projects, followed by a coding question. The question involved being given a set of coordinates representing train stations, where each horizontal, vertical, and diagonal direction...
I applied through a referral and the process was slow. ### OA: 1. Longest Palindromic Substring. 2. Given a set of points in a 2D plane, if points are in the same row or column and the distance is less than d, they are connected. Connectivity is transitive. Ho...
I interviewed with Uber for a Software Engineer position. The process started with an Online Assessment consisting of two questions. The first was a binary search problem (similar to an elevator problem), and the second was about server throughput, which I sol...
I was asked a variation of the classic word search problem: Given a 2D character matrix and a word, determine if the word exists in the matrix. Unlike the classic Word Search: * It supports 8 directions (up, down, left, right + four diagonals). * Once the star...
I had a technical phone screen with an interviewer who seemed nice. We started with some casual conversation. The interview consisted of two coding questions and a brief discussion about vibe coding at the end. **Question 1:** Given a list of intervals, find t...
## Problem Description You are given an array of **distinct positive integers** called `nums`, along with a positive integer `target`. Determine whether it is possible to select **some elements** from `nums` (each element can be used **at most once**) such tha...
