I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Lyft (California City, CA) in Aug 2024
Interview
It's the initial round of the interview. She asked a few questions about the company like, Why Lyft? How do you explain technical terms to non-technical people/stakeholders? And the call went around 10-15 mins.

First HR call, then manager interview, finally panel interview. they have a very stable interview workflow, you must follow star method. But overall, the experience was pretty good. Everyone was really nice and helpful.
The Lyft Data Analyst interview is pretty straightforward, featuring a SQL assessment and a case study round focused on problem-solving, business insights, and clear communication of analytical reasoning. Also had a round of behavioural interview questions.
