I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify (Toronto, ON) in Jan 2025
Interview
The Interview Process was very smooth. Overall it took around 3 weeks to get the final offer. First round will be an Life Story round where you will get an chance to present your previous experience and what leads you here. Second round will be technical round where you will get a chance to teach interviewer some tech skills that you have and then they will ask follow-up questions based on that and it will be of around 45 min. Pro tip: Try to learn Shopify Values and relate your previous experience with Shopify values so that way they knows that we did research on this company and know what they offer.
If everything goes fine then next day you get a call to move ahead with final step which is References. They will ask you for 2 References for background check and then after one week of that you will get a call form Hiring manager for final offer.
They really values the person and their skills more than what is in the resume. Good luck for the Interview.
