I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Lyft (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2021
Interview
Spoke with a recruiter who reached out to me unsolicited. I then connected with a former colleague who is a senior member of the team she was recruiting who put in a strong referral.
The recruiter rescheduled our initial call 3 times before we spoke. Fit we connected and she sped through the description of the role so quickly it was comical. One week later I received a form rejection letter. Asked for an explanation. Got nothing. Very strange.
There were a mix of case and behavioral questions and HR would walk you through every step.
Cases were fairly standard. There were 3 rounds in total - 1 with HM, then case, then behavioral.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft (New York, NY)
Interview
Very deep on analytics and statistical methods, this was for a role in their analytics/data group. It seemed like they were really looking for one specific answer vs. allowing other ways to get there, but maybe that's how it goes, idk. Didn't get a lot of feedback afterwards, which disappointed me.

Super friendly team. Fairly efficient process. Pretty standard loop, first with recruiter, then hiring manager, then a loop with members of the team - an execution case, an analytical case, then 2 behavioral interviews.
