One coding round and one recruiter round (behavioural). Pretty straightforward. They allowed using AI, which is interesting. I suppose it kinda makes sense given how much AI is used these days.
I applied online. I interviewed at Shopify (Toronto, ON) in Aug 2025
Interview
A coding interview where instead of solving LeetCode problems, you’re asked to design an application from scratch — describe its purpose, features, architecture, data flow, components, scalability, and how everything fits together in practice.
Initial recruiter call for life story which is a conversation. Afterwards, invited to a project presentation and technical (OOD/leetcode) combined round. AI and googling allowed during the interview. Generally pretty easy.
