I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Atlanta, GA) in Apr 2018
Interview
I applied and within 12 hours I had an email from the best recruiter ever (Ashley - Rose) reaching out to set up a phone interview. I then had a phone interview with the manager of the department and a senior account executive. My last interview was a in person panel interview with the manager and VP of the department (Small Business). I cannot express how nice everyone was during the interview process. It really made me more interested in working for Salesforce as I continued to interact with the employees.

Walk me through a deal example and how you won the opportunity.
pretty easy interview. Had to do a case. It felt like it was just a formality and they put me up to it to fit into their standard processes. Not the best experience but it is what it is
