If a card shifted onto a card with a when-covered effect is blocked by that effect, does the shift still happen?

The designer gave a worked example with Life 3 and confirmed the committed card lands after the interrupting text.

Yes. The shifting card is committed, so it cannot be affected or targeted while it is committed. The when-covered text resolves first, and then the shift lands on top and covers the card. Other cards can still be affected by that text, including the card about to be covered.
