Candidates who interviewed for Shopee's Business Analyst role describe a process that starts conversationally but can add a test and a case. One candidate counted roughly five or six rounds and found the process slow, so confirm the stages with your recruiter.
The HR round is usually described as straightforward. Candidates mention self-introductions, motivation for Shopee, reasons for leaving a previous role, and CV or project walk-throughs. One candidate noticed that follow-up questions came straight from the introduction, so keep it concise and deliberate.
The tests vary by candidate. One describes a numerical, logical, verbal and integrated reasoning assessment. Another completed a time-consuming but fairly easy Excel take-home. A third faced a challenging MySQL and Python written test with about five or six questions. Ask early which format applies to your team.
Case work is the common thread. Candidates mention market sizing, including one based on the last item the candidate bought on Shopee. Other prompts included comparing Shopee with TikTok Shop, handling a merchant complaint about too few delivery pickup stations, and responding when another team is late with assets. One candidate joined a 30-minute group case online. Another prepared a case presentation over a weekend from a loosely structured topic.
Outcomes are mixed. One candidate received an offer but declined it, while others did not get offers. Some mention slow communication or a stern interviewer who gave little feedback, so keep answers structured and confident either way.

Synthesized from candidate reports. Individual experiences may vary.
Candidates report an HR conversation covering a self-introduction, CV and project experience, why they want Shopee, and why they are leaving a previous role. Some also mention salary expectations. It is typically described as friendly and fairly easy, though follow-up questions may come from what you say in your introduction.
Several candidates report a test before or between interviews. Reports include a numerical, logical, verbal and integrated reasoning assessment, an Excel take-home, and a written MySQL and Python test. Not everyone reports a test, so ask the recruiter which one applies.
Candidates describe a hiring manager round on the role, motivation and situational questions. Examples include a market-sizing exercise and handling another team's delayed assets. Tone is reported as anything from easygoing to very stern, so structure your reasoning clearly.
Some candidates report a case round, either individual or as a group. One described a 30-minute team case and another a case presentation prepared in advance. Others describe market sizing, competitor comparison, or merchant and logistics scenarios. Prepare to state assumptions, structure the problem, and explain your logic out loud.
One candidate spoke with a team lead about the role's scope and answered situational questions. Communication was reported as slow in some cases, with one candidate having to keep following up.
