I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Salesforce (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2025
Interview
This was the longest interview processes I’ve experienced (six rounds spread across approximately three months). While each individual conversation was positive, the overall experience was challenging due to the length and lack of communication at the conclusion of the process.
The interview process was extremely long, spanning approximately three months and six separate interview rounds. While the individual interviewers were professional and the conversations themselves were generally positive, the overall process was unnecessarily drawn out.
After completing all interview stages, there was no clear follow-up, feedback, or formal closure provided. Given the significant time investment required from candidates, the lack of communication at the end of the process was disappointing and reflects a need for more transparency and respect for candidates’ time.
Recruiter missed multiple interviews only to tell me they have no positions only.
6 months later I receive an interview invite with pay $20k lower than originally discussed
Manager arrives late to the interview then cuts the time early. Company seems disorganized and difficult to take seriously as a so called leader in SaaS.

Question 1
Walk me through a deal example and how you won the opportunity.
pretty easy interview. Had to do a case. It felt like it was just a formality and they put me up to it to fit into their standard processes. Not the best experience but it is what it is
