I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2018
Interview
Longer process than usual, but a great experience & worth the wait. The recruiter acted as though they were my sports agent and she shopped me around to interview with a total of 3 teams until I landed the team with the best fit. I interviewed for 3 teams and got 2 offers and 1 denial. One offer, I accepted but it was immediately a hiring freeze, but I eventually got an offer in better situation after a total of 3 different group presentations.

What is something that you have recently taught yourself?
How do you keep someone such as a Co-Prime rep motivated to close the deal?
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
