I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Salesforce (Paris) in Apr 2018
Interview
The whole recruitment process took 5 months with 7 interviews + a panel presentation. All interviewers (mostly Senior Managers) were very professional, accurate in their questions and very honest about their requirements for the position. I found the whole process well lead by my HR contact who was extremely helpful and available whenever I had questions. The panel presentation was key to demonstrate my skills and capabilities. Salesforce makes sure that the candidate has the right skills for the position.
