I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Francisco, CA) in May 2018
Interview
Was contacted to fill a summer intern position that opened up in May. Two phone interviews both technical. The first began with a short two part coding question and then a Second began with "Tell me about yourself" before a ~45 minute coding question session (Algorithms and SQL)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Round 1:
Given the root node to a binary tree, print each value in the tree breadth-wise.
Followup: Print the sum of each layer (depth) of the tree.
Round two:
Construct a Frequency Stack (push, pop, top).
-Push adds an integer to the stack
-Pop/top removes/returns all values with the largest frequency in the stack.
Write a SQL query to return the 2nd largest value in a table.
I got an home assessment, managed through the Hackerrank system.
It had 3 Leetcode questions, one was pretty simple and the second was harder. Needed to be with my camera on the whole session, and full screen. They gave 60 minutes to the whole session - means the two questions
Waiting for next steps.
oa-> recruitercall -> 2 45 min interviews

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
It was really smooth, I loved my recruiter and everybody was really friendly. 2 rounds, 1 technical, 1 behavorial, each 45 min. Behavioral had questions related to their core values and technical was a LC easy. Technical had a lot of concept questions and a bit of practial design collaborate session.
