El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Lyft (San Francisco, CA)
Entrevista
Recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn and after discussions I was setup for a phone interview using coderpad. The phone interview had 1 each of SQL and python questions which I managed to solve with a few hiccups. I was then setup for onsite which had 5 rounds and lunch with a team member.
Onsite
1st round - General discussion about my profile
and started off with leetcode problem. I partially finished but could complete since ran out of time.
Lunch time - Waited for the team member who was supposed to take me for lunch but he never turned up and I missed the lunch.
2nd round - SQL coding on MacBook with MySQL session. The interviewer was busy with Facebook and didn't know or answer any of my clarifications. All 3 queries went unanswered since I didn't get the clarifications and was not sure what to expect.
3rd round - Came in and introduced himself and started with the behavioural round and asked about previous work experience.
4th round - System design round, was asked to design a distributed system with failover considered.
5th round - Lyft use case for designing a dimension model.
Overall less than average onsite interview and as expected didn't get the offer.
Technical phone screen, virtual interview including 4 rounds - system design, coding, SQL, experience interview. There's hiring review after that where a separate team evaluates the scorecards and makes a decision whether to offer a job to the candidate or not.

Entrevista
My experience at Lyft's interview process consisted of five comprehensive stages. Each step was well-structured and engaging, providing valuable insights into the company's culture and expectations. However, it became apparent that they prioritize candidates with leadership experience, which was not aligned with my current background.

Pregunta 1
Algorithms, design interview, a lot questions about background and conflict resolving.
