Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Salesforce (Boston, MA) nel mese di dic 2015
Colloquio
Recruiter reached out for phone interview. Had a cordial chat and explore my resume, he politely declined my application as I was not from the industry. He also took time to explain that it is because they are looking for a specific role and asked me to apply for more generic role

Domanda 1
How would you over come the gap of being from outside the industry? Do you think you can overcome this disadvantage?
I had a really positive experience interviewing for an Account Executive role at Salesforce.
I was referred by an employee and assigned to a specific hiring manager who was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Every stage was well-structured — I was provided with clear expectations and even examples of questions, which allowed me to prepare properly.
The timing between interviews was very reasonable (about 1–1.5 weeks), and communication was consistent. The hiring manager stayed closely involved the whole time and was genuinely helpful and professional.
Although I didn’t receive an offer and understand I wasn’t the best fit for this particular role, I’m very grateful for the level of professionalism, transparency, and support I experienced throughout the process.
Tough process. Multiple interviews with final RVP on different teams. They didn’t seem interested, almost like they already had an internal hire ready. Waste of time it seemed, oh well.
The process has three stages: first, a recruiter screen; second, an interview with the hiring manager; and finally, a panel presentation as the last round in the overall interview process.
