Interviewing with Uber

Spoke to an Uber recruiter 2 weeks ago and he said that he will talk to teams and get back to me. Every couple of days he emails me that he is working on it then disappears again. Is this normal? Is it really this hard to schedule initial screening with teams? Did anyone have a similar experience with Uber?

Yep. It's really hard for non-majority ethnicities.

I had the same experience. I’ve let it go. If there’s an interest, they will call.

At least he is replying to you every few days. In my case, they would disappear for several days and wouldn't respond even after I email them to see what's going on. And then they would respond all of a sudden one day. I eventually found a team I was interested in even though the process dragged out for several weeks. I hear they are heavily understaffed given there is more interest in uber these days.

Yes, uber recruiters ghost you all the time, and then re-emerge, only to waste your time and ghost you again. In my case it culminated with a phone screen where the interviewer was 15 minutes late and they got back to me 3 weeks later saying the position was no longer open
