Interview
I loved my interview with shopify. I received an email from the person conducting the interview a week or 2 in advance. I then scheduled my interview. Everything went smoothly. Just don't be nervous in your first call
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Shopify in Dec 2021
Interview
Life story interview with a recruiter. I honestly find this particular interview odd - first, this was my first conversation with anyone at the company and they scheduled this for an hour - seems like not a great use of their time? And then I just talked about my career for almost an hour - didn’t know really what they wanted me to focus on. Felt long winded and overkill. Inserting a bit more focus into the life story seems like it would help everyone. Needless to say I never heard anything back after, not even an email turndown or anything. PSA to employers: candidates remember when they’re treated well as they network with others.
Virtual phone screen with a recruiter. Then a follow up interview with the hiring manager to discuss your life story. Recruitment process for screening took longer than the job posting described.
