Shopify Interview Questions

The interview process is very repetitive, many of the same questions from different people. Took 6 months for an offer- and then they low balled with a very low salary. Tried to sell the benefits package as extra money to the base salary- not great.

I only got to the HR interview, where the HR representative told that I don't have enough experience for the role... I felt this unprofessional, because then why invite for an interview if they think I'm unqualified. Context: I have 5+ years of line manager experience in the field.

The standard, “non-standard” Shopify interview. It was a nice series of conversations, and I would do it again voluntarily. I spoke to recruiters from a couple of different teams and got a sense of the broader structure. The questions were interesting.

great managers, very friendly. i had multiple interview stages. the interview stages were a technical interview, a behaviour interview (they called it something else but i can't remember now), and that was it. no leetcode or anything.

Brief talk with a recruiter and then Pair Programming. The interviewer for the pair programming didn't explain the question correctly and confirmed my incorrect understanding of the problem. I'm not sure she understood the problem either. At one point during the interview, the interviewer accidently let the TV show she was watching on her other browser play and pretended to act confused. Not the best interview experience; felt lazy and unprofessional. Failed the pair programming but after that experience I'm good with that.

Very smooth process, with solid fundamental interview questions and a great pair programming experience. Make sure to know the project that you are bringing, they ask a lot of follow-up questions.

Was recommended to the company. Took them 1.5 more time than their own deadline to even reach out. Then got asked the same questions I was answering in the form they asked me to submit beforehand (Either get rid of the form or don't ask the same questions you already have answers to). Got rejected for the experience I specifically described in the portfolio and supported with case studies. Then analytics showed that the reviewer spent 19 seconds looking at my portfolio and only the latest case study. I understand the pipeline is massive, but the recruitment process is literally a parade of red flags: from submitting a form with weird questions to a sleepy recruiter on the call who can't bother to even sound interested in you and asking reasonable questions, to having specific reject messages which aren't supported by the facts. Please work on your process and at least try to bother looking into people's portfolios before rejecting. In almost a decade in the industry, I've never seen such an unprofessional recruiter. But honestly, now it explains the feedback I hear from the people on the inside and why people who care about their work quality actually leave this golden cage for smaller companies.

No HR call or anything, just jumped straight into a live coding session with a 30 minute time limit. The problem is not difficult, but if you freeze like I did, 30 minutes won't be enough because you have talk through the entire process. Make sure to prepare.

Very very slow process. 1+ month to hear back after initial application submission, 1+ month to schedule the interview, 1+ month and still no update even after spending 4+ total hours for the interview process. Was very turned off by the company and would be hesitant to work here, very slow to make decisions.

It was a long process with multiple steps. Getting to know you interview, sample questions and role playing on chat. Process moved along quite quickly and everyone was extremely nice.
