I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Shopify in Oct 2020
Interview
The background interview was very nice.
The technical interview (Gauntlet) was extremely difficult especially the chat part. The questions were pretty weird considering they were not related to the app at all and you had to dig deeper in order to find them. You also have to nail all three, Phone, Chat and Email which is very nerve-wracking. No making up for any mistakes you make.
Definitely would not recommend to anyone. The interview itself reflects on how stressful of an environment it would be and no amount of money should subject anyone to these levels of stress.

Question 1
Discuss your Life story Gauntlet - Test chat and test call
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify (Londres, Inglaterra) in May 2022
Interview
The process was straight forward, I filled out the form on the Shopify website from which it took about 2 days to hear back with an invite to a lifestyle interview. There it was just about getting to know me and how I got on the road that has led me to apply for this position.
After that I was invited to a technical interview which consisted of 2 chats and a Email.
Overall I highly recommend creating a test store before the technical interview as it helped out a lot in preparation.
The whole process took about a month
