      Database Administrator Interview

      Mar 19, 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Herndon, VA
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Herndon, VA) in Mar 2017

      Interview

      Phone Screen, followed by a 7-hour interview in person with 6 people (and a paid lunch!) followed by two hangouts interviews. All told I spoke with 2 DBA's, 2 SQL developers, 3 python developers, a director and a VP. Topics covered included database architecture (RAC, Dataguard, RMAN, typical stuff), SQL tuning, problem solving, a python white boarding session, automation, unit testing and some soft skills like strategic thinking and conflict resolution. As the position includes a lot of integration/release and automation I assume it was more developer/python heavy as opposed to what other DBA's may face.

      Database Administrator Interview

      Sep 13, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Singapore
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Salesforce (Singapore) in Apr 2020

      Interview

      It's like a SCAM interview! ! After HR phone call, I was selected and went to 2nd round which is technical interview. However, things abnormal happened: first I was not interviewed by Singapore local engineers but by call from Indian, during the call he is unfriendly, rude, unappropriated unprofessional in many questions At the end I feel he was trying to use me as source to troubleshoot his daily work problem, stole my ideas, step away and No result after interview. I suggest local Singaporean do Not take call into such "interview"!
