Shopify Backend Software Developer interview questions

Meeting the recruiter, code challenge, life story interview, pair programming (2x), technical deep dive. They’re very thorough, but friendly and accommodating. Although the process takes more time than with other companies, it was enjoyable.

One of the recruiters approached me to discuss opportunities at Shopify. They congratulated me for all my achievements with my current employer and commended me for my skills. I ignored them much like most of the emails I receive, but they were persistent and sent me a reminder email 3 times. So, I finally gave in and decided to hear what they had to say. They were very brief and unfriendly and didn't really say much. They replied to me a week later and said that the hiring committee has decided to not proceed with my "application" because "other candidates have similar technical stacks and have worked in a more similar scope/scale as us! " Well, kudos to their hiring team! If my portfolio was not so similar to your scope and scale, why did you approach me in the first place? I'd stay away from them if this is an indication of what type of workplace this place is. Messy, pretentious, unorganized, ignorant.
