I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2017
Interview
There were a series of short interviews leading up to a panel interview, which was a presentation & demo in role. The panel is challenging and you will be pushed, but the team goes out of its way to help you prepare and make sure you're ready to do your best. A mentor is assigned to help you throughout the way, and the process was very positive and rewarding.

Question 1
There were some challenging "skeptical customer" questions during the panel presentation.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
A recruiter reached out to me multiple times, and when I finally took the call, it turned out to be a standard placement conversation as they’re currently hiring SEs across several teams. After a 30 minute screening, during which I clearly stated my location, the recruiter informed me that all new SE hires are required to follow a mandatory hybrid in-office schedule. Despite knowing I don’t live near a major office, they said I would need to relocate before proceeding with the interview process. Never heard back after the first meeting.
Submitted resume through a referral, started the interview process a week and a half later then had 5 grounds of interviews and received the offer. Interview difficulty was not bad, the solution demo was the only part that involved considerable prep.
