I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Shopify (Toronto, ON)
Interview
Seemed like a typical multi-stage interview process. Had an initial call then moved to phase two where I spent a significant amount of time preparing a Sales presentation to two senior managers. The presentation + discussion was an hour long. It went well, then I never heard from them again. No offer, no ‘we will not move forward’, no feedback. I felt disrespected to be honest. I spent a lot of time doing multiple interviews with them, preparation, research, etc,.They told me I would hear back from them within the next 3 business days, but nothing. Then, I followed up with them after a full week had passed. No answer. Just not a great way to treat people.
I attended screening round after submitting the online application. Generally after one to two weeks. But i felt the process was not clear enough, but I can feel the stressful environment after layoff.
Game then screening the. discovery and then life story. Nothing too complex but unnecessary steps. The interviewer were wanna be entrepreneurs who are far from that. That is the overall process.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify (Calgary, AB) in Sept 2025
Interview
They asked basic questions and was a fact collecting session vs an interview. Not personable experience with interviewer. Would not recommend if any insight into company behaviors. Long interview process with many steps, recommend one ensures they really want the role before committing to process.
