I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Salesforce (Singapore) in July 2018
Interview
I interviewed with the hiring manager and their manager for two different roles after an initial screening call with the recruiter. The initial referral came from a senior executive so the recruiters screening call was more about the process than to screen me.
I initially interviewed for one one role but agreed to another. I had 5 formal and 2 informal interview.
It was important for everyone that the role was a good fit and ensured the job would be successful. I was very impressed with everyone involved and was able to have open and candid discussions to ensure we were al on the same page.
