As Per title, do I just print out the receipt from the web?

I only used Uber for all of my callbacks and expensed all of them without any issues.

I know someone who was interviewing at a firm that repped Uber. They got dinged for submitting a Lyft receipt. Make sure you do your research.

How do they know that? All of this goes through recruiting and most people submit their receipts LONG after decisions are made. Stop anonymously trolling.

Lol. "Hello. We are unable to offer you a position at Firm X because we noticed that you submitted a Lyft receipt on your expense report. Despite your great grades, work experience, and personal skills, we regret that we will have to offer this position to someone who prefers Uber."

I'd be careful with surge pricing. I heard someone in recruiting complain once about some ridiculous 5x surge to JFK which was like $300 or something. Not sure if you'd really get dinged over that but I think it displays poor judgment, and you probably don't want to give that impression to recruiting.

just fucking submit your NALP forms two weeks after the interview. by the time you copped the offer, they wont give a fuck if you expensed $300 on a surge-uber

jfc if you're REALLY THAT paranoid about it, just wait until after u get the offer to submit. I had like $300 of uber for one CB in a market where the airport is not near the offices. I also expensed a couple reasonable bar tabs from the night before overnight CBs. Nobody gives a shit.

Yea, this (well probably not the $300 uber). I submitted all my shit after I made my decision. No one in recruiting gives a fuck about expenses unless you do something egregious.

Are Asian massage parlors OK to expense, or do firms prefer you stick to the Russians?

Like they would care about a $20 fare to a different company. not a chance they would care.

"Oh, he took lyft? Well, there's a conflict of interest; we have to drop him!"
