I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Salesforce (Toronto, ON) in May 2019
Interview
Applied online and went through the screening process with HR. This was a phone call that lasted around 30 minutes. The interviewer wanted to ensure that you're interested in sales and, particularly, that you're interested in working with Salesforce. This can be shown by knowing about the different products, or going through Trailhead and getting some badges. I didn't make it any farther.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why Sales? Why Salesforce? What skills do you bring to the table?
Took a bit longer with scheduling - but otherwise pretty smoothe. Call with a couple recruiters then an onsite with some of the managers. Lots of behavioral and situational questions
Quick with lots of different people included, several rounds, no softball, overall a pretty interesting experience. I'd be curious about their cut throat culture. Feel free to share your feedback as well.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Dublin, Dublin) in Jan 2026
Interview
Fair interview process with 4 stages, precise recruiters, the company provided additional support for preparation with materials, extra call with the recruiter before the case, . Doable process but you need to be really well prepared to show that you are the one they want.
