I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2017
Interview
I spoke to a couple of hiring managers and met with one of the documentation teams, product management, and a developer. The recruiter did an excellent job of keeping me informed about the interview process, and working with the hiring manager to place me in a role that was the right fit for me. Overall, I enjoyed the entire interview process and had a great time speaking with every one of the interviewers.

The overall interview process was very good. All the interviewers were very polite and experienced. I had a great time interacting with each one of them. There were total four rounds including one written assessment and three technical rounds. The questions were mostly situational and behaviour. Lot of scenarios given and they wanted a solid example for each scenario.

The interview experience was well organized and simple. Everyone involved with the interview process from the company's end were friendly, courteous, patient, and professional. They were very flexible in accommodating my schedule throughout the process. The process itself was fairly straightforward and consisted of an online application, three phone interviews, and an in-person half-day interview.
I found the phone screens to be energizing and informative but it was the in-person interview that really sealed my decision on Salesforce as a company for me. As part of my interview process I met senior leadership and program directors that gave me great insight to the challenges that Salesforce is trying to solve for, and that made me excited about applying my talents to the cause. I also met individual contributors performing similar work to the position I applied for. Their personalities, outlooks, and positive vibes made me feel like I could belong to the team with relative ease. I found the whole process very comfortable, open, and warm.
In terms of interview prep Salesforce provides fantastic resources ahead of the in-person interview where you can learn about the company culture, business, products, and more. I researched products outside of the vertical for which I was interviewing and I found this very helpful in connecting with interviewers from other groups.
