I had following rounds for Salesforce :

1. Hacker rank 2 questions 120 mins - one solved completely other only passed 3-4 test cases out of 10.

Then I had 3 more rounds

2. Coding - went well. 2 questions. Solved

3. System design - went well according to me. Felt that interviewer also liked the discussion.

4. Managerial round - asked about past projects and then asked some coding problem which I interpreted as something else did wrong and then couldn't correct it. So didn't go well. Could feel that it went poorly based on interviewer too.

To my surprise Got a call from recruiter to have another round - hiring manager round.

First of all, I don't understand why two managerial rounds.

5. HM round - went fine not the best but was not too bad either, past projects and behavioural questions only.

After that I haven't received any details from recruiter. After 3 days(on a Friday), reached out to recruiter out of frustration/desperation.
Told me that, will get back on Monday.

What is going on? Did I make it or not? Having frustrating process with Microsoft too (3 weeks +), which made me reach out here, to diffuse some frustration.

YOE: 8.5

    Yes, they are keeping you on hanger and probably closing with some other candidate. This happens all the time.

      Yeah, not with Salesforce but with several other places. Once after all rounds of interview DirectI instead of rolling out offer asked me to give one more round. That too was after 15 days. By that time I had joined some different organizations. It is extremely frustrating.

      I agree and going through similar thing at Microsoft. They have asked for all the salary documents and competitive offer information but have not offered anything yet.

    This is the worst time to switch. Recruiters are not making any effort to call and let us know that why everything's taking so long.

      Recruiters are literally ignoring mails

  • First managerial round's feedback must be neutral, hence the second manager round. So they are interested. Given the end of the year the interviewer may not have submitted the feedback in the system or the hm may be out on leave or something else. So just hang in there and don't take it out on the recruiters. They could do better in any situation. But Salesforce is much more transparent and a better place than microsoft. Please don't compare.

      Thanks for the response. Based on your response, I guess I will get some update either way pretty soon. I'm not comparing at all. It's just I'm justifying my frustration by taking MS example.

      One more thing the second HM round was a director and the first one was some manager. Was the second one some director round?
