I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Sydney) in Jan 2019
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter and we had about a 30 min chat. I was then set up to have a 1 hour interview in office with a hiring manager, a few days later was asked to interview again for another hour on site with another manager. I was then asked to have another 1 hour virtual interview with another manager. I was finally asked to create and present a 1 hour presentation about my professional background, and what I knew and could bring to the role. This was live and in front of 3 in person managers and 2 virtual managers. I was offered to position about a week later.

Question 1
How would you handle a communications issue between 2 departments
Needlessly long process of hiring, they should eliminate candidates before they go through all interview processes if they understand that candidate is not a good fit. I had too long and too many steps
In 3-4 rounds with friendly interviewers, be well prepared about personal characteristics. Connect with the interviewer, ask questions if you’re not sure, and maintain competitive yet low expectations throughout the process.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2023
Interview
Everything was streamlined and intentional From the beginning of the process, starting with Haley (the recruiter)! From the first phone conversation, I was aware of how many rounds there would be. Four total with the final round being a presentation about me, my experience, & what I'm looking forward to if given the opportunity.
