Initial virtual interview with recruiter over zoom. Recruiter was upfront that they were not serious about me and just curious about my experience. Having worked for a large technology company, the recruiter was more interested in what it was like working there than discussing the opportunity or role.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself, tell me about your current role and responsibilities, why Shopify
Unconventional which seemed Ok at first. The place had a real cult of personality vibe to it. Everyone was nice, but I really did get the sense of a "we are holier than thou feeling".
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify in Aug 2024
Interview
The process was unnecessarily long, lacked direction and at times irrelevant. The technical test was essentially a 3 question test on excel functions.
The life story was one of the strangest interviews I have been involved in. The recruiter came off as arrogant and disinterested. At times I felt like they were just gathering information on my previous employers. Judging by some of the comments on their company culture, I'm glad I dodged a bullet.
Zero feedback received too which says it all about their culture.

Question 1
Why do you think you are good enough to work for Shopify?
The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify in Jul 2024
Interview
The recruitment process I went through was quite interesting and involved several stages. First, I completed an online test that evaluated my behavioral and logical skills. After that, I had an online meeting with the recruiter. This was followed by another online session specifically designed to test my data skills. Then, there was a life story interview, and the last stage was a reverse life story interview. I received feedback within about 1.5 weeks.
