I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2009
Interview
Inside recruiter contacted me and set-up a date & time to talk. He didn't keep the commitment to call me and I had to call him to remind him.
My feeling is that they do interview without having a specific job in mind. Even though I applied to a sr. acct. mgr. position.
The process for the interview as described by the inside recruiter is ardous. After talking with the hiring manager, his/her manager you must do a presentation to a group of people?!
I didn't come away from this phone interview with a positive feeling about salesforce.com. The attitude I felt was "we're a great company and we don't need you".

Question 1
It would be that the inside recruiter sent me follow-up questions to answer as he had to get off the phone.
The follow-up questions were ones he had already asked me? Hey, are you listening?
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
I applied online. I interviewed at Salesforce (London, England)
Interview
There was a massive lag between the first and second round through the internal recruiters. Then the one with the hiring manager was dreadful, he showed up 10 minutes late to the Zoom and then said ‘I hadn’t even prepared for this, let’s go through your cv now’.
I applied online. I interviewed at Salesforce (Bengaluru) in May 2026
Interview
I went through two rounds of interviews at Big Gigantic, including a detailed presentation, and was disappointed by the lack of transparency and communication. The role was pitched as significant but the offer reflected a supporting position, with compensation packaged in a way that reduced the actual hike to about 16%. HR did not disclose the budget upfront, dismissed concerns about responsibilities versus pay, and simply stated “people are in line, accept or reject.” For a prestigious brand, this rushed and dismissive approach from HR felt unprofessional and undermined the candidate experience.
