I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Salesforce
Interview
Went through 2 phone interviews with hiring manger and the VP of sales. They let me control the conversation for the most part. Didn't seem like they had many questions for me. I asked the majority of them. Nice people. I declined to move forward.

Question 1
Very fixated on my sales process currently and matching lingo more than anything else.
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
