A couple of former colleagues from my current company passed on my resume because they knew I was the primary Perforce Admin. (among many things) at a very successful start-up for 7 years. I'd also installed and configured the application 8 years before that for a group at another job when Perforce was a small shop. I knew I had the skill sets but the hiring manager phone screening was an absolute fiasco. The initial HR contact was fine and the questionnaire about the application prior to the phone screening was pleasant and simple enough. However, when I spoke with the hiring manager: rather then focusing on administering the application in general, I was grilled on the specifics of a recent project that was a rather unusual configuration. As we got into it, I realized that giving away too many specifics might be violating the SLA my current company had with Perforce and at that point, I couldn't gracefully back-pedal out of his questions. SLA's and Intellectual Property agreements are a big deal with any start-up. The hiring SF manager then tried to point out that what I had implemented was impossible. He can believe what he wants to believe but maintaining the corporate setup successfully for seven years should have spoken for itself. The interview really should have focused more generally on the application, configuration and implementation, and not an unusual configuration that even Perforce Tech. Support had to double-think whenever I had a question. There's no doubt in my mind that there are wonderful groups at Salesforce.com. This was just a lemon interview and I was informed within a matter of hours I was no longer considered a candidate. After all of these months, they are still looking for someone which doesn't surprise me at all. Guess I'll be bumping into someone from Salesforce at the upcoming Perforce User's Conference and it will be interesting to see how "Agile" s/he really is....
