The hiring process at Shopify takes an average of 29 days when considering 2 user submitted interviews across all job titles. Candidates applying for Lead Software Engineer had the quickest hiring process (on average 1 day), whereas Senior relevance engineer roles had the slowest hiring process (on average 56 days).
Sooo many interview steps but had great conversations Oh… then they laid off all their staff including the recruiter that interviewed me and stopped the process so I felt pretty catfished knowing they were never going to hire the entire time.

Had a short call with a recruiter and then was offered an interview.

Following this I had a short coding challenge with a senior member of their development team.
