Pathetic Experience with Uber India

Hi Guys, I just wanted to let you know that Uber has some of the shittest HRs and Hiring Managers. I had recently interviewed for the SE-2 Frontend position and from my start of the application, my HR never interacted with me. She only used to send an email if I passed the earlier round and to give a context I had reached till Hiring Manager and Bar raiser round and successfully completed both. Out of all 5 rounds I had Hiring Manager was the only one where I got the negative vibe and he was a total unprofessional piece of sh*t. Like taking interview, munching snacks, and not giving a damn to any of the behavioral answers. After my rounds were done I waited for 5 days until I politely message my recruiter for any update and that instant she bashed saying don't u understand you got 3 /5 rounds -ve so you are not selected. When asked for detailed feedback she stopped replying. Guys from #uber is the culture in Uber India so bad that after wasting candidate time and saying you passed previous rounds that's why you went till HM and Bar raiser rounds and then recruiter ghosting a new norm? I really would never like to work for such a company that doesn't believe in technical skills but believes in wasting candidate time. #uberindia #interview #uberinterview

U should have bashed her too. Give back the people how they treat u. Self respect over anything. Get some balls man and show same attitude

Wtf. That's extremely unprofessional. She could have just said that politely or sent a regular automated rejection email.

Exactly, she could have just said I am rejected. I felt fishy when I got a mail on interview process feedback. I could have really tagged on linked but there is an idiom saying.. if someone is inhuman it does not mean we also have to be inhuman. Anyway, Karma will bite back!

Sorry, I have few questions : 1. Do Indian recruiters really give u detailed feedback? 2. Is there a concept of bar-raising rounds in India ? 😲

Not just India, my SWE friend was ghosted by Uber too in SF

Looks like this is the new trend. I guess apart from high TC there is nothing else there in Uber.

Square Svia60 May 5, 2021

Agreed. It seems like quite the unhappy place from what I’ve heard. Find that high TC somewhere better OP! If Uber gave you an interview then this is possible.

DM me your recruiter name. If they are same I will suggest to stay away. Most unprofessional person I have seen till now.

Agree with the IITian part. Even I felt the same thing while interviewing for other big companies.

OP - would you mind sharing ur experience over email with me? I'd like to escalate this internally so going forward people don't have such terrible experiences.
