I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Dublin, Dublin) in Mar 2025
Interview
After a few emails and an interview with the recruiter, she told me that I would receive updates via email in the following days. However, after two weeks and two follow-up emails—both of which were completely ignored—I checked the job portal and discovered that my application was no longer under consideration.
This lack of communication is highly unprofessional. It takes less than two minutes to respond to a follow-up email from a candidate simply seeking clarity on their status in the hiring process. Even an automated rejection email would have been more respectful than complete silence.
Job seekers deserve basic professionalism and courtesy. You never know what someone may be going through, and a little respect goes a long way. A company like Salesforce should hold itself to higher standards and ensure that its recruitment team reflects those values.
I am completely disappointed and will make sure my colleagues in the IT industry are aware of how Salesforce treats candidates. If they ever consider applying to this company, they should know what to expect.
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
