Friendly phone interviewer & overall conversation went well. Interviewer had not really read my resume ahead of time, which was disappointing. Seemed a bit uninterested from the start & not like I had their full attention
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Shopify (Toronto, ON) in Aug 2021
Interview
Long interview process with several tests. The technical test was in English and I failed because I wasn't fast enough. I was applying for the Mandarin position so doesn't make sense they measure my mandarin skills during an English test.
I applied online. I interviewed at Shopify (Los Angeles, CA) in Jun 2021
Interview
The interview is in two stages, the first was rather a casual interview which took place online during the lockdown. It's fair to expect it will remain that way for a while. The second portion is a live chat support aspect.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
During the first interview, questions about past examples of helping others.
Second interview, consisted of one person playing two chat boards. The second question was ridiculously hard for someone onboarding to a new position. It seemed designed to catch me up and it did.
