I had a phone screen with Uber. Finished two coding exercises in the session. (About 45 mins as we spent some time talking and ended the session earlier). One is a medium problem in Leetcode which I had complete running code with some tests and the interviewer verified the results were correct. As for another one I had the code with right solution but didn’t have a chance to run it as the interviewer got what I was trying to do and used the last few mins for any questions I had.
But I got rejected after a few days. Is the bar to Uber so high and the expectation is to finish more than two medium problems in a 1 hour phone screen ? I am pretty sure I got the solution for the first problem right as I put my code in Leetcode and the solution beats 50% of others. And from the interviewer’s reaction I got he second problem right too. Do they compare candidates they have received so far or they do have a consistent bar for the phone screen?

This has worked well for me. I went on an onsite interview spree recently with Yelp, Uber, LinkedIn, and Google. At every one of these places, the feedback was always super high because of the high communication skills the interviewers gave me.
