I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft (San Francisco, CA) in Sept 2017
Interview
Submitted resume and optional cover letter on Lyft's jobs page. Was contacted 1 week later with an invite to interview. From there on it was very quick moving and straightforward.
30 minute phone screening with recruiter;
30 minute phone interview with hiring manager;
2+ hour in-person interview (4 team members x 30-minute/interview);
Take-home assignment (4-5 days to complete) and review
2 hour in-person presentation & additional interviews (45 minute prez, 2 team members x 30-minute/interview)

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Lyft
Interview
I got contacted directly by both the recruiter and the hiring manager, as I previously had an interview with Lyft, and they wanted to know if I am still interested. The whole process was very fast and the recruiting team was very professional and friendly. It was the best interview experience I had so far.
Pros:
Great benefits
Fun environment
Amazing culture
Interesting problems to solve on a daily basis
Cons:
some teams are heavily understaffed
