Clear and professional interview process at Salesforce: the recruiter screening, hiring manager discussion, and solutions engineer interviews were all well-structured, engaging, and provided a strong opportunity to showcase my experience and alignment with the role. The panel stage, however, was notably more challenging and highly selective, with a strong emphasis on storytelling, strategic thinking, and demonstrating the ability to collaborate effectively in a team-selling environment. It required not just product knowledge, but also the ability to articulate value, navigate complex sales scenarios, and align closely with Salesforce’s consultative sales approach and culture.

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
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Londres, Inglaterra)
Interview
There was a massive lag between the first and second round through the internal recruiters. Then the one with the hiring manager was dreadful, he showed up 10 minutes late to the Zoom and then said ‘I hadn’t even prepared for this, let’s go through your cv now’.
I applied online. I interviewed at Salesforce (Bengaluru) in May 2026
Interview
I went through two rounds of interviews at Big Gigantic, including a detailed presentation, and was disappointed by the lack of transparency and communication. The role was pitched as significant but the offer reflected a supporting position, with compensation packaged in a way that reduced the actual hike to about 16%. HR did not disclose the budget upfront, dismissed concerns about responsibilities versus pay, and simply stated “people are in line, accept or reject.” For a prestigious brand, this rushed and dismissive approach from HR felt unprofessional and undermined the candidate experience.
