Uber Software Engineer interview experience

I ended up strong on four rounds, with the overall experience feeling like it matched my skills.

But the fifth coding round was where things fell apart for me. I struggled there compared to the earlier rounds, and that contrast stood out as the turning point.

When I look back, it wasn’t that I had a consistently bad day—it was more that one later round didn’t go the way the rest of the loop did. The result made sense in hindsight, but it still stung because the earlier momentum was real.
