Me postulé a través de un reclutador. Acudí a una entrevista en Lyft (San Francisco, CA) en may 2026
Entrevista
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.

Pregunta 1
tech screen is leetcode specific, system design is OOD related, and behavioral has bunch of questions instead of talking about one specific projects.
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.
