How it went

The candidate found the Uber data scientist interview to be exceptionally challenging, describing it as the most difficult technical screen they've encountered. Despite two weeks of preparation, nervousness impacted their performance during the one-hour session. The role requires strong Python and Pandas skills, with a focus on data structures and algorithms, and does not permit SQL.
