RemotePosted Oct 2023 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My first step was a phone screen for a senior role at Uber, and the question felt pretty straightforward—more on the easy side than anything intimidating.

I was asked to parse a log file, sort data, and find patterns, all within a limited time.

I coded up a working solution that ran and passed the tests, then talked through the time complexity. I remember feeling good about how the implementation looked, not just that it was correct. The overall vibe of the round matched my confidence pretty well.

That’s what made the call feel so calm: it wasn’t a struggle to get to a functional answer. I walked away thinking the code quality and the analysis of complexity had landed well, and the round felt aligned with my strengths.
