Process

1 phone interview

Onsite at the New York office:

  • 1 coding round
  • 1 DS/Algo round
  • 1 behavioral round
  • 1 system design round (with lunch)

The recruiter was very welcoming, and all the engineers seemed nice overall. It was a process I thoroughly enjoyed. I'd read that Lyft makes sure all candidates feel welcome, and I did feel that.

I expected my system design interviewer to be more conversational, but system design interviews can always be tricky. As expected, I lost on the system design. However, I feel completely encouraged to apply for the company again in the future.
