I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Lyft (Nashville, TN) in Jul 2017
Interview
Phone interview, interview in person with two people. The phone interview was authentic inquiry into who I was, the second one felt very rushed - it seemed like I took too long to give answers and the people receiving my answers weren't necessary listening to my answers. They were ready to ask the next question before I was finishing my answers.
The first person I interviewed with seemed to want to see how I fit into the role I was interested in. During the second interview, we all sat in a room being encouraged to be ourselves. I'm very authentic myself and sensed that the two people interviewing me were overwhelmed by my energy. While I appreciate the process, I think this team is still pretty new and you could potentially experience some of the things I did without them being intentional from the interviewers.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Lyft (Toronto, ON) in Jun 2019
Interview
It was short but I was caught off guard with the questions they asked. I wish I prepared more for the role. But the interviewer was very polite but I knew I wasn't getting this job.
I applied online. I interviewed at Lyft (Nashville, TN) in Apr 2018
Interview
Had a couple of calls and then an in-person interview with a couple of different members from different teams. great way to see the company culture. You could tell people really liked working there! I also had to take a grammar and social media test!
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Lyft (Nashville, TN) in Jan 2018
Interview
Sat in a group and viewed a presentation. After that, I was taken to a big room with current employees in that were sat 2 to a table, the interviewers all were assigned to a table with two employees by name. The whole process felt really rushed, and honestly kind of judgey. Seemed like you had to be a certain "image" to fill the role, and if you didn't meet that image while talking to only two of the employees out of 700+ you didn't get the job.
