Minimum yoe for SMTS in Salesforce

How many yoe is minimum to get an interview for SMTS at Salesforce? I’ve seen some profiles on Linkedin who are SMTS with 2-3 yoe in SF and Bellevue. I currently live in Bentonville and was looking to relocate to Dallas. I looked at MTS and SMTS profiles at Salesforce Dallas and people with 5 yoe got hired as MTS and with 8-9yoe got in as SMTS. Does this vary across locations ? TC: 125k in Bentonville. 2yoe #salesforce

It’s easier to get promoted to SMTS internally. 3-4 years of experience and solid interviews/competing offers can get you that level. The expectations from an LMTS+ external hire are a lot. You need to either have a lot of experience or a high position at other companies. SMTS is a wide band.

All right thanks! Would you be open to giving out a referral for an MTS position then?😛

I have someone with 3 yoe SMTS. Internally Salesforce promotions are based on merit. For lateral hires, they need to manage parity. So I would suggest, if you are confident, you will rise quickly after joining. If you are not that good, you will genuinely learn what you can improve on.
