I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify in Jan 2022
Interview
Applied and heard from a recruiter to schedule a screening interview two days later. Screening call was 30 mins where they asked why I want to work for Shopify and gave me an opportunity to ask a bunch of questions. Next round was life story - pretty self explanatory - just chat about your life story! Next round was reverse life story where I had to perform a life story interview on an existing recruiter. Final round was a deep dive into my work experiences. Such an awesome interview process; everybody was super friendly and it felt very relaxed the whole time.
