      Design Interview

      12 Jan 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Shopify in Nov 2018

      Interview

      Shopify has a Life Story phone screen interview where you are able to take the conversation anywhere you want. You are largely in control of direction but at times I was asked specific questions but it all felt like a casual conversation.

      Designer Interview

      7 Sept 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify in Aug 2024

      Interview

      The hiring process felt disorganized, with no clear direction from the teams conducting the interviews. It was apparent that they were unsure about the exact role they were hiring for, which raised concerns about internal alignment and decision-making. This lack of structure makes it feel like job security could be tenuous, as there doesn't seem to be a strong company culture or processes in place to support or protect employees. Additionally, post-interview communication was poor. There was no follow-up or feedback, and ultimately, I was left without any closure or response, which felt unprofessional.

      I applied through university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify (Toronto, PE) in Jan 2023

      Interview

      The experience was great and the interviewer was nice and patient. I did three rounds of interviews and still waiting to hear back. I will add another update soon. Shopify is definitely up there

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify in Mar 2022

      Interview

      I applied online and about a month later their recruiter reached out to have a quick video call. About a week later they scheduled two back to back interviews. One was a Life Story interview with the same recruiter, the second a portfolio review with one of their designers. The interviews were pretty casual. I was asked to prepare 1 or 2 portfolio pieces to talk through my process. I thought it went well, but then I received a rejection email because they wanted more clarity regarding my process presenting to stakeholders. It's such a specific topic and I politely replied that if they wanted me to talk about that then they should've brought it up during the interview or asked me to elaborate in a follow up email.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Life Story interview: Casual conversation to get to know you. Portfolio review: Presenting a couple portfolio pieces and talking about your creative process.
