I applied online. The process took 12 months. I interviewed at Shopify in Feb 2021
Interview
After submitting my CV, I received an email to go through a Google Meeting. I had an interview with someone from the senior. They asked me several questions for about 10 minutes.

Question 1
What is my process of designing the product and managing the team. What tools I use.
My first call was a 20-minute call set up with another product manager. I assumed given the short duration that it would be an intro discussion about the role; almost like a phone screen. It was not. It ended up being a full blown interview where I felt very rushed in answering questions and it just felt very stressful. I certainly should have prepared more, but I also don't think expectations were set appropriately.

Question 1
What was the hardest program you ever managed and why
Good, fast, and organized process. You will be fine with enough preparation. I think the interviewers are fair also. They also have standard protocols on how to guide interviewees to ease the nerves.
