Phone screening call followed by take home assignment and subsequent interview on site. Everyone I interacted with was clear about what they were looking for and helpful in answering my questions

Question 1
Identify key metrics to understand market performance
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft in Oct 2018
Interview
Contacted by a recruiter about the position. Spoke with said recruiter, which went very well and it appeared my background was a good fit for the position. Was asked to sign an NDA before speaking with the general manager of the office. This call was very rushed and I didn't feel very good about it afterwards for this reason. Two questions were asked to gauge both business acumen and analytics ability, one of which I answered well and the other in which it took me a few questions to arrive at my answer. I felt this was not a sufficient amount of conversation to properly gauge my abilities. I emailed recruiter afterwards and was informed they were continuing with other candidates. This felt like a quick turn of events after they initially seemed so interested in me and told me I'd be a great fit.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Lyft (Atlanta, GA) in May 2018
Interview
Phone screen with recruiter, then case study with hiring manager then homework. I did not get to the interview stage since I messed up with the homework. Altogether a positive experience. I realized that I was not doing as much as I could in my current job, so I have stepped up my game. Will definitely be ready if another opportunity like this comes up in the future
