I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Mateo, CA) in Jun 2010
Interview
High level of unprofessional-ism experienced from the hiring manager. Made me feel uncomfortable during the interview because hiring manager berated and spoke negatively about one of their subordinates. HM also agreed to give me a chance to prove my abilities based on a suggestion I gave them, but never followed through. I can only assume HM was too busy to send me the instructions.
HM's main focus was on power instead of performing their job well. I was left wondering why a company like Jigsaw would retain an individual like this, especially if HM didn't have enough common sense to know their conducting themselves inappropriately during an interview.
I'm a strong believer that everything happens for a reason, and although this position wasn't meant for me due to the circumstances, by sharing my experience, I hope other professionals in the industry don't encounter a similar situation. Sometimes, it only takes one person to shatter the reputation and image of a company, especially in the B2B world.
Interviews were extremely positive, with a friendly and supportive tone across four team members and leaders. Unfortunately, after almost completing the full interview loop, I was completely ghosted with no follow-up or closure. This lack of communication felt unprofessional and disappointing given the time investment required and that I was working with a recruiter. Not a good look for their people culture.

Interview
The interview process is very lengthy compared to other places I have interviewed with. It is 4 parts and the first 2 people you speak with are a recruiter and HR where they basically ask similar questions. In my experience, the hiring managers for both roles acted so impressed with my experience, our conversation, and seemed genuinely interested in me possibly joining the team, to the extent they were going to skip the panel interview. But then I received a non-selection letter. I also interviewed for a role and got all the way through the process , for them to tell me they didn’t have permission to hire for the role right now but would be in touch. I have wasted so much of my time. It would be nice if they would tell you upfront and be honest if they don’t believe you are a good fit for what they are looking for, instead of making you think you may get offered the role.

Question 1
Questions regarding marketing strategies I have used.
Overall a good process. Recruiter keeps you informed along the way with next steps and easy-to-use schedule links. Initial call was phone, and then hiring manager interview was through video.
