A 15-min phone screen with the recruiter, a 30-min phone screen with the hiring manager, a ~4 hr onsite with 5x30-45 minutes sessions with one or two people, and a homework assignment. Everyone was really friendly and obviously quite passionate about the work they do. The questions all seemed reasonable and I enjoyed getting to meet so many different potential coworkers, but the onsite sessions were all fairly cookie-cutter with mostly the same questions in each one, which made the significant time commitment a bit aggravating. Some interviewers were prepared, but others clearly hadn't prepped questions or reviewed my application. The recruiter was awesome, always responding when she said she would get back to you, if not sooner. She was also candid with feedback when I was rejected.

The interview process with Lyft was incredibly well organized by the recruitment team. All email and phone communication was thorough, timely and clear. When it came to the phone and in-person interviews, everyone I met, from a variety of levels, was prepared, welcoming and interested during our conversations.
