      Design Interview

      Mar 14, 2019
      Anonymous employee
      Toronto, ON
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shopify (Toronto, ON)

      Interview

      The entire interview process was so seamless. From the email touch points to booking your interview slots, they thought through everything and used great third party tools along the way that made everything efficient. The people I met with were really nice, and made the interviews actually enjoyable. Some people commented that the Life Story interview was invasive, but I had a different experience. The interviewer asked a fairly broad question which allowed me to pick and choose what experiences I wanted to highlight. It may be different depending on which HR person you get though.

      Designer Interview

      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.

      Average interview

      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.
