I expressed interest in becoming a driver through the phone application. I later received an email with a link to an application to become a driver. My application along with a background check was processed in a couple of days. I then became a lyft driver on the app, but had to get screened by a lyft mentor.I activated my app and drove to my mentor's location. He checked my vehicle, snapped a few pictures, and we went on a test drive. He told me where to go and how to best approach the job.
