Colloquio
The interview process consisted of initial call with the hiring manager, a Life Story interview with the recruiter and and then a PjM planning walkthrough. Additionally, I had interviews with three other team members.
The interview process took 2,5 months from application to decision call. All the questions were typical for a PjM position, no surprises there.
Everyone was very enthusiastic about their jobs and easy to talk to. Unfortunately, in the end I was told that they decided to postpone hiring for this position indefinitely. It’s quite unusual to hear from a company of that caliber and I wish they aligned on this before dragging candidates through the process for months.

If you are American, do not interview with Shopify - lowest ROI in the industry. Apparently, they are a big deal in third-world Canada fraught with egregious unemployment and they interview with this in mind. It's a tedious loop of company lifers and failed devs. They seem anxious and risk-averse. Scrap it - re-evaluate your time - literally any mid American company is a better return on invested time (look at the salaries). I think the process was like 3-4 months - absolute mental illness for this caliber of company.

Root cause questions with some Shopify-specific product. Learn RCA frameworks.
Too many rounds of interviews. The last round is a case study interview which is not a great format for assessing if a candidate would do well in the role.

They ask for your life story which I felt was a great way of learning about a candidate, their journey, and how it has shaped them to excel in the role they're applying for.

the initial call was a screen with the recruiter who was very friendly and explained the position. after that it was an interview for 45 minutes with the hiring manager who was also very friendly and approachable.
