I applied online. I interviewed at Salesforce (Indianapolis, IN) in Jan 2024
Interview
I went through multiple rounds of virtual interviews for different teams. The first two teams I interviewed for rejected me. The last one I did accepted me. The recruiters were very helpful and responsive throughout the process and addressed any concerns I had. The interviewers were all professional and answered any questions I had.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Salesforce in May 2026
Interview
It was pretty quick. Pre-screening followed up by a 20 question multiple choice quiz. Then a panel interview. I was told by my recruiter the panel interview wouldn’t be technical but that was completely wrong. It was very technical.

Question 1
They gave me code snippets and asked if I knew the output.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Dublin, Dublin) in Apr 2026
Interview
The process was long and involved multiple stages, including technical assessments and panel interviews. Communication delay in the one stage and a long delay in the final stage. During the final stage interview, engagement from part of the panel appeared limited, which made the interaction feel uncomfortable.
Candidates generally describe the Salesforce interview process as moderate in difficulty, well-structured, and focused on real-world troubleshooting, communication skills, and customer handling, rather than extremely deep technical grilling or complex theoretical questions.
