I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce in Nov 2018
Interview
First I was sent a Hackerrank challenge in which I was given 90 minutes to solve two problems. The Hackerrank challenge was not too difficult, and I had plenty of time to check over my work.
About a week later I was contacted to set up a 30 minute video (google hangouts?) interview. About a week later I was invited to on-site interviews in the Salesforce tower. The on-site interviews consisted of three 50 minute interviews. During these interviews I was asked to walk-through and explain various pieces of code and answer different questions regarding the code. The rest of the questions were mainly regarding my previous technical experience and how I deal with various issues that arise in the workplace (standard behavioral questions). About 5 days later I was called and extended an offer.

I don't remember any specific questions. Questions consisted of the usual behavioral questions and some code review, as well as some questions about previous technical and workplace experiences.
Round0: OA 3 questions, were easy maybe doing it quicker would help
Round1: Lot of basic level LLD questions and 3 basic DSA questions like implement binarysearch, swap two variables without using temp and merge two sorted linked lists
