Hi, there! Thank you for sharing your experience here, I'm sorry to hear there was no offer this time around. We are constantly looking to evaluate our hiring process so your feedback is appreciated! Data Scientists at Shopify are unique in that we look for individuals with strong technical (coding) experience and analytical skills as they are responsible for analyzing big data and building models that are then put into production. For this reason, we would need to ask a lot of questions and ensure we're a good fit for each other. Our Life Story sessions are designed to be conversational, we want to get to know you! It’s important for us to find out the ‘why’ behind what drives you, what makes you passionate about the problems we’re trying to solve, and how our values align together. I'm sorry to hear you felt the interviewer here was not engaged, this is valuable feedback for us here. I do hope you'll apply again in future if you feel ready!
