Interview
Salesforce came to the college career fair, had a chat with the employees and applied online. Had a phone round for API team after that I got a call for onsite, however, few days before the onsite I was informed that position was offered to someone else. Fortunately, the recruiter helped me to get matched with another team was called onsite for the same.
The interview process was straightforward: recruiter screening, coding (DSA), then the onsite loop. The coding rounds focused on standard LeetCode-style problems with no major surprises. The loop interview included both coding and system design, following a typical software engineering interview format that was clear, structured, and easy to navigate.
