I applied online. I interviewed at Lyft (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2018
Interview
Process took one month. Two initial phone screens with recruiter and then hiring manager. I was then invited onsite for a interview with five different people. Questions were mostly professional background based with a few behavioral questions and a role play exercise. Overall good experience, recruiter was engaged throughout the entire process.
