Things to Know Before Your Uber Driver Interview

This article is relevant for both Uber partners and drivers. The Uber driver interview is an important step on the journey to becoming an Uber driver. It is paramount that you are well prepared for anything and everything to ensure you get "Uber approved." In this post, we will discuss 3 determining factors that will get you ready for an Uber driver interview.

Ask an Existing Uber Driver

The first thing to do when preparing for this interview is to ask someone who has been through it. This might be the most valuable means of getting tips on what to expect during your Uber interview. Existing drivers can share their own interview experiences; types of questions they were asked and what they wish they had known before they went in. Doing this would help you avoid making the mistakes they made, and also help you prepare better. You can get good advice if you join an existing Uber drivers forum.

Know Your City

This is quite important. As an intending driver, you would be tested on your knowledge of the area where you intend to drive. Uber will want to be sure that you won’t rely largely on your GPS, which may fail at some point. It is necessary to know the shortcuts and the good ways to avoid traffic. You could even take a test ride if you feel the need to.

Know How to Use a GPS device

The use of GPS is a vital part of day-to-day Uber driving. It is not expected that a driver would have absolute road knowledge, so you need it from time to time. For roads you are familiar with, the GPS will help ensure smooth navigation. It is not very difficult to master the use of GPS but just ensure that you get good practice before you go in for your Uber interview. You could use apps like Google Maps, Waze, Sygic, Navmii, Navigon and of course Uber’s built in GPS app UberNAV.

NOTE: Prospective drivers should make sure they have these documents available for their Uber driver interview.

• Vehicle Registration
• Drivers License
• Valid Insurance documents
• DOT certified i.e Department of Transportation (in some cases)
• And a Clear Photo of yourself
• Other documents may be needed depending of the city

Criminal and background Checks will also be run on intending drivers (After completion of Test portion of interview).
