very long interview process. Started with HR, then 1 round of tech almost a month later. Then final round also a month later.
first round - HR call. Tell me about yourself
second round - SQL and Python. Pair coding, my interviewer helped me out.
final round - lots of back to back panels. Talked with some stakeholder and peer DS.
Didn't get the offer, but I like they provided me feedback and I think they are fair. Anyways, the interview process was long.

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

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.
