I did the initial coding interview which went well and moved on to the "Growth Path" interview. After that interview, I didn't hear anything back for weeks so I assumed they had ghosted me. But 3 weeks later they contacted me to do a "Life Story" interview and when I checked the interview process tracker, it appears the growth path interview disappeared and got replaced by the life story interview? So it's 3 weeks later and they are essentially asking me to interview for the same round a second time just under a different name. They also didn't have availability for this interview until a few weeks out. I haven't gotten an offer or rejection yet but it seems like the process will take months to get to final rounds.
Overall it makes their interview/recruiting process seem quite unorganized and unprofessional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
After reading the careers portal, what's your take on Holding the Tension?
3 technical interviews (1 basic challenge, 1 leetcode challenge style both with pair programming format, in the programming language that you choose; 1 systems design) 1 deep dive, and 1 with HR
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify (Montreal, QC) in Jan 2020
Interview
Applied online and they scheduled an interview over the Skype. It was a 30 minute interview but they did not focus much on technicals. I think the interview should have been more thorough.
