I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2015
Interview
An initial phone screen, a fit interview over the phone, a 2nd phone interview, and then a take home assignment that I worked on before heading out to San Francisco to present my work and spend a 1/2 day interviewing with a variety of teams. Friendly and cordial across the board, they are not trying to make this a consulting or investment banker experience.

Interview
The team running the interview process was highly coordinated and always responsive. I felt the process was also as much about me getting to know the company, its team, and its market as it was about them getting to know me. I happily accepted an offer and give credit to the team that extended it for making it so easy for me to do so from start to finish.
