The interview process is structured and is not very different from other BDR interviews. Salesforce looks like a great employer and it probably is. However, providing feedback/follow-ups after the interview is something they are not keen on.
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce in Aug 2024
Interview
Very quick and straightforward interview process. Two calls with recruiters, followed by a panel interview with hiring managers. Very welcomed in this age of 5 or 6 round interviews that drag out for weeks.
Interview questions [4]
Question 1
What is your understanding of the BDR role, and why do you want to join the BDR team?
Will you please tell me how your current / prior experience aligns to the BDR role you applied for, and your performance relative to your monthly KPIs / Metrics?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (New York, NY) in Aug 2021
Interview
