I applied online. I interviewed at Lyft (Nashville, TN)
Interview
Emailed by recruiter day after I applied; asked to complete 'homework' that was essentially seeing how I would respond to candidates. Submitted the same day, was contacted by a recruiter a few hours later. Scheduled an interview online for the following week. Recruiter pushed back the interview an hour before the interview because she had a meeting. No problem, I was flexible. After 30 minutes I asked about next steps and she said at end of week/early next week should follow up. Never heard back, even after I followed up. This seems to be a trend with this company, and something higher level managment should be aware of, because it is not a good look.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Stregths/weaknesses; salary expectations; when I can start; behavior based interview questions - tell me about a time you dealt with someone who was disatisfied, how did you handle it; how would you respond to a candidate who needed to change interview time.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft (San Francisco, CA)

Initial recruiter call, take home assignment, and then panel interviews that included a live scheduling activity, and a few 1:1s with various potential stakeholders that focused on partnerships, customer experience, and problem solving.

Interview
There was one thirty-minute phone interview with a contract recruiter and four back-to-back in-person interviews with the hiring team that consisted of scheduling exercises and situational questions. One of them was with the hiring manager and most were with potential peers.
I applied online and received an initial interview offer within a couple of days. The recruiter requested to reschedule on short notice (2 hours before the interview) and I happily accommodated a new time. Not sure why the recruiter had a very defensive attitude, asked irrelevant questions, and just seemed disinterested in the candidate's qualifications or work experience. Didn't even ask about my previous experience with recruiting specifically or why I chose to apply to the company. I probably asked the recruiter more questions about their experience and the company culture than they asked me. Just looks highly unprofessional on the company's end.
