There was an old thread about this I saw on here. Basically a bunch of people did it and never heard back and thought that this was a way Uber was getting free consulting work.

Yeah I did it, I’m sure it varies from role to role but for me the prompt itself was pretty straight forward. However, similar to what others said, heard crickets after I submitted it. After persistent follow up, they finally mentioned that due to the latest issues with the company they were no longer moving forward with hiring for the role. It’s possible that they are using it for free work, however my impression is that its a cluster of a company r.n. and they don’t know what they need. My recommendation if you are really interested, is to do assessment but only use public information, don’t break your head over it, and focus more on how you are structuring the problem rather than the right answer (if they are genuine that is all they should care about). Good luck.

Moved to the city about 6 months ago and I’ve been disappointed in my experience. I know the pandemic is playing a factor but I didn’t expect the winter days as gloomy as they’ve been. For those who have lived here for a while, is this normally what the winters are like? What do you do to keep things interesting when you can’t go outside? Last two months have made me consider moving but part of me feels like I won’t have given the city a fair shot
