Salesforce - applying to two different roles?

People at salesforce - I see two roles open at salesforce that fit my skill set. One is at quip and the other is at salesforce. Is it ok to apply to both? Will they question whether or not I know what I want or anything along those lines? Role is for data engineering

Apply for both. Most likely different hiring managers

Quip is better

Quip positions are all evergreen fake positions. Just apply to everything.

What does evergreen fake positions mean?

Salesforce GH6538 May 23, 2019

Evergreen positions means that the position is always posted but there may or may not be a headcount. Usually there is no manager attached to the position. Your friend should be able to check internally. It would say evergreen. The ones that say all levels all locations software engineer are usually marked evergreen. Quip always has these positions that just rejects everybody. Even internally moving there is a pain.

Ty for input all. I got a referral via a friend to the quip role. I feel bad asking again for another role so if anyone here is willing to look at my resume and refer me, comment here and lmk. Thanks!

If your friend already referred you then you are his referral for a year. Getting another person to refer you won’t give that second person a referral. Have your friend submit you for more roles.
