I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Salesforce (Melbourne) in Sept 2018
Interview
Requested a referral from a former colleague who worked at Salesforce. My CV was submitted and I received a call from the recruiter the next day. Then went on to an interview with the hiring manager the following day. The final interview was a panel of 4 which included a technical lead, hiring manager, team member and VP where I was asked to deliver a presentation and plan for a fast start in the role. Although I didn't get the job, the process was very positive. They were also great about providing feedback within 48 hours on the interview.

Walk me through a deal example and how you won the opportunity.
pretty easy interview. Had to do a case. It felt like it was just a formality and they put me up to it to fit into their standard processes. Not the best experience but it is what it is
