I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Salesforce (Herndon, VA) in Apr 2016
Interview
Overall, the interview process was enjoyable and thorough. I had an opportunity to speak with key stakeholders, managers, peers and future direct reports. I started with several telephone and video chat interviews and eventually moved to an on-site interview that included a mock meeting where I was asked to role play a scenario relevant to my position. After this, I had an opportunity to meet with several of the team's executive leadership. The process was somewhat long, but it was consistently pleasant. In the end, I accepted the position and could not be happier! I have never looked back!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were a lot of questions focused on whether I understood and would integrate well into the Salesforce culture.
I applied online. I interviewed at Salesforce (Stockholm, Stockholm)
Interview
First interview with HR, followed by interviews with several people from various departments (some of them from completely unrelated areas), and the process ended with a live case study simulation. The preparation for the case study was quite intense as the scope of work requested was very wide, which I found kind of unfair as they expect candidates to invest so much time preparing for a final step in the recruitment process. Because there were so many interviewers attending the final case study simulation, I felt that no one took the actual responsibility for guiding me through the recruitment process and properly briefing me for each step, which resulted in misaligned expectations for the final presentation.

Question 1
There wasn’t any unusual or new question. All the interviewers went through the classical flow of getting to understand a bit about me as a person, career evolution, questions to qualify fit with the role
I had several rounds of interviews, including with both senior team members and peers of the hiring manager. These were broken into four interviews, two of which had two interviewers.

Question 1
They explained some of the challenges in the department and asked how I would formulate a way to address the issue, including if I had done this in previous companies and what worked/didn't work.
The interview process was engaging and thorough. I felt like I got a good idea of the culture and the team I could work with.
Each Interviewer did ask different questions and gave me time to ask mine.
