Entrevista
Interviewed first with engineering recruiter over the phone. She found me on Linkedin. She seemed very junior. She asked basic questions. She didn't seem to know much about the teams I would work in, besides basic info on the stack. Anything specific technical I asked she said that "it would be a good question for the hiring manager." After my recruiter screen, I had to do a coding interview. I passed this and then was invited in for a 1:1. I met the team and they told me that they don't interview for roles specifically but just for a culture fit at lyft. I ended with a closing interview from the CTO.

They asked me on my second phone interview to write code and they sent a link.
Jumping into the technical phone screen, I was pleasantly surprised when the interviewer asked me to design a driver-rider matching service, something I had just practiced in-depth on PracHub. The prep I did really paid off, as I navigated the complexities of indexing live driver locations and addressing high write rates with confidence. The full virtual onsite included two coding rounds and a system design question, along with behavioral interviews. While I appreciated the opportunity, I ultimately declined the offer for different reasons unrelated to the team. The overall experience was intense but rewarding.

the process is pretty straightforward. first recruiter screen, tech screen, and then onsite (system design, behavioral, and laptop). you may or may not meet the manager of the team you are interviewing for during the onsite behavioral. the laptop round is basically OOD.

tech screen is leetcode specific, system design is OOD related, and behavioral has bunch of questions instead of talking about one specific projects.
