I applied online. I interviewed at Lyft (Seattle, WA) in May 2016
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter who asked to set up a time for an initial chat. I gave them several windows of availability. Four days later they wrote back and we settled on a time. Five minutes before we were supposed to speak, the recruiter emailed and asked to move the time to another time that didn't work for me. They took a week to get back to me, and after I gave them a new set of times they dragged their feet for another week at which point I took an offer from another company.
Doesn't necessarily speak ill of the company as a whole, but at least that one recruiter (who is still employed there a year later) is wildly incompetent.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft (Toronto, ON) in May 2026
Interview
My experience wasn’t great with Lyft.
During my system design interview, my interviewer kept silent most of the time.
No communication, and he seems to end my interview session as soon as possible.
Be careful about this
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Lyft (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Process is good. Not too exhaustive and they respond quickly. Recruiters are great too. I cleared all my interviews and I am in team matching since a very long time. Lyft does not give you an offer even after clearing interviews.
