I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2017
Interview
The first interview was with a recruiter over the phone. The second phone interview was more a prep call for the in-person interview. At the in-person, I met with an employee in my same role first and then had a panel interview with several sales managers.
