That number base conversion problem on the HackerRank tripped a lot of people up apparently. OA was 3 problems, two mediums and the base conversion one. Then two coding interviews back to back: dynamic programming and linked lists. Manager round was 30 min about internship projects and what I'd want to work on at Uber specifically. Got the offer about 10 days later
