What happens if Uber rejected you?

Reapplying to Uber and Lyft Both Uber and Lyft allow rejected applicants to reapply. However, they don't make it easy. In fact, the companies don't seem to have a set policy on this. Instead, people report that it is a case-by-case basis, or that a specific period of time has to pass before applying again.
