Tips to prepare for Uber on-site in a month?
What are some of the best ways to prepare for Uber on-site interview given a month's time (total study about 60-80 hours)? I haven't actively interviewed in the past 2 years, so my skills have gotten rusty. I was lucky to clear phone screen without any prep. Role: Sr. SE L5 or above depending on interview performance YOE: 5 Level of education: MS in CS Current area of work: Backend server and application dev Looking for suggestions and resources to best use my limited time. Any suggestions/tips appreciated. Thanks in advance!

For 5A or above, be prepared to drive the conversation in the architecture round. Distributed systems knowledge is going to be tested and trade offs of using particular databases.

HM round is more work-based situational questions
