Question 1
Q: Tell me how about a time you had to deal with someone who had unrealistic expectations
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Frankfurt am Main) in Dec 2021
Interview
I approached a Salesforce recruiter on LinkedIn and got on a call very shortly after. After that first call, they shared my resume with a few directors and organized a call for me with one of them. This second call was followed by a third call with another senior employee. I was then invited to prepare a presentation and demo which I presented in a role-play format in front of a panel consisting of four senior people.
Every single interaction with all people involved was extremely nice, welcoming, supporting and encouraging. It never felt too formal and as if I had to watch every word, instead it was an authentic and honest conversation. It was an atmosphere intentionally made for to feel good so that I could perform at my best - an immensely positive experience.
The preparation and execution of the panel interview is pretty heavy though but a healthy exercise to simulate how you'd perform in the job.

Interview
Multiple rounds with panel at the end. Give yourself lots of time to prepare your case study. Especially if you are new to Salesforce tech! Overall I enjoyed the process. Was a busy couple, weeks but worth it in the end.
