Shopify Software Engineer interview questions

I applied at Shopify in late April and received an invite to chat about a month later. The first interview was a quick 15-30 minute chat about why I wanted to work at Shopify, why I wanted to leave my current employer, etc. After the call, I received an invite to schedule two additional meetings: a “life story” interview and a “coding exercise”. The life story interview was pretty straight forward, you talk about your life and experiences and how you ended up where you are now. After that was the coding exercise which was just over an hour long and revolved around creating multiple algorithms required to apply discount prices to a store checkout. After those interviews, I waited about 8 days before being invited to 3 additional interviews: the deep dive, coding exercise 2 and coding exercise 3. The deep dive interview involved talking about projects that I was proud of and challenges I overcame while working on them. I suggest that you prepare beforehand with information about the project so that you can talk for the full +1h interview. The coding challenges are similar to the initial exercise, you are given a problem and they give you about 1h to solve it. After this, I waited about 7 days before being invited to a call where they told me that they would be making an offer. I was able to talk to the team lead prior to signing anything which helped me learn if the position was a good fit for me. Overall the process was long but very professional and friendly.
