I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify
Interview
First a phone screen with recruiter followed by a coding challenge and a live story.
A week later several interviews (coding challenge, problem solving, technical deep dive). A lot of interviews but worth it at the end.
Hi there! Thanks so much for taking the time to submit your thoughts on the interview process. I'm thrilled it was a positive experience and wish you all the best in your new role!
Other Data Scientist interview reviews for Shopify
Interviewed with the hiring manager, really weird experience because it felt like an info session for me to ask questions. Whole thing was done in about 20 minutes with the guy being distracted by Slack messages.
It came off like they already filled the role before this interview

Question 1
Tell me about yourself and why do you want this job
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Shopify (New York, NY)
Interview
An unnecessarily long pre-interview process that requires an assessment test, a ridiculous survey with 100 questions, and 1 hour pointless life story, although easy, was annoyingly long and took away from the interview experience.
I applied, got the assessment the next day, and passed the assessment 100%. The HR contacted me roughly two weeks later for pair coding. first round assessment: the question varies --> second round pair coding: system design
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
no behavioral questions. just typical system design questions
