Salesforce interview process was one of the smartest and coolest. Process started by getting a call from Recruiter, Jai. He was an awesome recruiter who helped me understanding the process , role and openings available. I have picked the matching opening he has and he routed my resume to the hiring manager. After hiring manager interview (45 mnt), i was given an assignment to finish in 3 hrs. I took the assignment on my weekend and after the assignment evaluation recruiter called me and informed that team wanted to got forward. Then there was a technical round followed by onsite. Onsite was 6 rounds mainly white boarding and system design.All the panel members were smart and nice enough to explore best out of me. After the onsite, recruiter called me and said team wanted give the offer. During the entire process Jai helped as the bridge and he made sure I am most comfortable in all the phases. I accepted the offer after a week.

I interviewed with several groups at Salesforce, each of which was initiated via employee referrals. Both groups followed the same basic interview process: 1) A call from a Salesforce recruiter who provides information about the position and gauges your level of interest. 2) A short screening call with the hiring manager where you can more detailed information about the position and also see to if you would be a good fit for the position and the team. 3) Typically an online three-hour coding exercise -- plan on using the full three hours. 4) Interview with the team, anywhere from 5 to 8 team members. 5) Assuming the team wants to move ahead with the hiring process, the final step is typically to have a 30-minute phone call with a VP. A Salesforce recruiter manages the entire process. I was extremely impressed with the Salesforce recruiters I was working with, they were always responsive to questions I had and kept the interview process moving along in a timely manner.
