Uber SDE1 | Selected
Summary
I was selected for the Uber SDE1 role after four interview rounds, which included Data Structures & Algorithms, projects, Low-Level Design, and a behavioral hiring manager interview.
Full Experience
College: Tier 1 (Btech in CSE from NIT) YOE: 1 Previous Experience: Product Based Company Date of Offer: July 2025
Round 1 (DSA): It took place on codesignal, there were 3 DSA leetcode medium-hard level questions to be solved in 60 mins. I don't remember exactly but the topics were around binary search, prefix sum and 2D DP.
Round 2 (Projects+DSA): The interviewer first asked about my experience and projects that I have been working on in my previous company along with some followup questions than gave 2 DSA leetcode medium level questions on DP and Graphs. The DSA level was lower than previous round and the interviewer was very friendly.
Round 3 (LLD): He asked me to design a food delivery system like zomato. We started with discussions about requirements, classes and interfaces, than DB schema, tables and relationships between them like delivery partners, user, shopkeeper, orders. Some questions like how would i maintain data consistency and followups.
Round 4 (HM): Fully behavioral with scenario-based questions (handling conflicts, team issues, etc.). Hard to gauge performance, but it felt okay. Wrapped up by asking a few questions.
Verdict: Selected
I applied through a google form shared by recruiter on Linkedin who was my connection. These days you can try boostmyreferral, or keep an eye on telegram groups where you can get a referral link.
