      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft

      Interview

      Had an awesome phone screen with the hiring manager. When I came onsite, it was a bit unorganized, and they had me doing a lot of walking back and forth between interviews. I felt that I connected with everyone on my interview panel except for one hiring manager. He seemed to already have a set opinion of me before he met me, and asked and said a few things that threw me a bit that didn't seem relevant or appropriate. Not in a weird way, but I felt that he may have not conducted too many recruiter interviews in the past. It was awkward. He was super friendly towards the recruiting coordinator, but then would turn and be cool towards me. Maybe that how some people feel they have to be towards candidates. I left there feeling a bit confused. I was hoping to be even more enthusiastic about Lyft after the interview, but none of the interviewers really took the time to discuss their team, roadmap, company culture, etc.

      Recruiter Interview

      21 Jul 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft in Feb 2022

      Interview

      Hands down the worst interview experience and I was an employee referral. Had an enjoyable recruiting screen on Thursday and was told my interview process would be expedited due to my high candidacy. Submitted my availability, asked for the final interview panel information, and did not hear from the recruiter for 10 days. Submitted availability again, silence for a few days, then my interviews were suddenly scheduled with less than 24 hours notice. I had offers already and wanted to complete these interviews asap as it was taking longer than stated. I still did not have the names/titles of the interview panel. The recruiter called three hours before my interview for "prep". Completed the interviews. On the same day, the recruiter said there's a strong likelihood (wink wink) that I'll get the position and will call me with the team's decision within four business days. Two weeks later the recruiter sent a curt email explaining the delay and that a decision will be made shortly. I never heard from the recruiter or anyone at Lyft again. After this experience, I use Uber.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The interview questions were not difficult. It was difficult to properly prep due to confusion around interview dates and interview panel.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Lyft (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2021

      Interview

      The interviews were remote which is understandable during the pandemic. However the interviewer, who would have been the direct manager showed up late, wearing a tank top and was not engaging at all. Very unprofessional.
