Entrevista
Very extensive interview process, but in a good way. They do an excellent job of ensuring you're a company fit with a life story interview, which you do before you do the interview where you meet your potential team members. It does take some times to go through each round of interviews, but I liked that they were diligent in the process.

Life story is basically an open-ended conversation where you just tell them your life story. There's no way to prepare but to just reflect on yourself as a person and the experiences you've gone through in life that shaped you into the person you currently are.
Candidatei-me online. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Shopify.

Unfortunately a recruiter based out of the Netherlands was very disrespectful.
When I shared about wanting to explore the opportunity and see if there is a fit with the team, the recruiter responded with "with regards to fit, that is our job to decide not yours." That was a very unnecessary comment. It goes without saying that the decision to move forward with a candidate lies with the company, but an interview is also a two-way conversation for a candidate to also learn about the company and role.
When it was time for me to ask questions, I asked if the hiring manager was looking out for a specific type of candidate so I could understand what kind of person would succeed in the team. The response: "Everything is written in the job description." The point of letting candidates ask questions is to learn more about the role beyond the job description, no?
The lack of basic respect left such a bad impression, please do better.
Apply, recruiter, hiring manager, team member, and maybe one more senior individual depending on the level of the role. It can get a bit tedious but I felt they were pretty quick through the process and communicated well in terms of progression and next steps.
the interview process was good and they did not take a long time to answer back, there were 3 interviews and the last one is the hardest but if you prepare for it it will be okay.
