I applied through a recruiter. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Chicago, IL) in Apr 2013
Interview
You will go through numerous interviews either on the phone and in person. you will have several face to face interviews and then a final presentation interview/role play. The comment internally that it is easier to get into Harvard than it is to get hired at Salesforce.
The interview process consisted of five rounds and was quite demanding overall. Expectations changed between interviews, communication was inconsistent, and the hiring manager came across as dismissive and unnecessarily harsh throughout the process
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Salesforce (Helsinki, Southern Finland) in Jun 2025
