I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Shopify
Interview
This was a refreshing process from start to finish. After submitting an unconventionally lighthearted application through their website, I was invited for a Life Story interview a week later. The interview was simply an informal get-to-know-you chat with a recruiter that lasted about 45 minutes. It's best to not prepare too much and just talk about yourself like you would with friends. A week later, I received a follow up email informing me that the process was taking a bit longer than expected; I really appreciated being kept in the loop as I was getting nervous about not hearing back. The following week I was invited in for an afternoon of meetings with a few of the team leads. Again, this was a very pleasant process - very relaxed, but this time we chatted a bit more about my experience and goals. I was offered the position two weeks later. The whole interview process took about 2 months and again, was very unique and refreshing! At no point, did I feel like I couldn't just be myself which I think allowed them to really gauge if I would be a good fit for their team.

If I had a super power that would benefit my role at Shopify, what would it be?
Thanks so much for taking the time to offer a review. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed the Shopify interview process. You have correctly highlighted that interviewing at Shopify is different to many other interview processes as we put a lot of effort into getting to know each applicant personally. By focusing upon qualities over qualifications (although those are important too) we aim to employ authentic and passionate people who are excited to solve those challenges we face as a company in striving to make commerce better for everyone.
