Software Engineer Apprentice Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
I applied for Lyft's Software Engineer Apprenticeship program and was directed to the onsite, which consisted of four back-to-back interviews: two frontend and two backend.
I was able to choose my preferred languages and frameworks. Three of the interviews were live code-along exercises, by the end of which I was expected to get specific requirements working. One interview was a more casual chat about Python, data schemas, and SQL with the engineer.
Everyone was very friendly, and it was an overall enjoyable process. The recruiter called me afterward to deliver the decision.
