J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Salesforce en oct. 2009
Entretien
I wish I could write good things about this company because I really wanted to like them.
Almost all of my interviews were phone interviews. Everything seemed to be going just fine and we scheduled an in-person interview. I got great feedback from the people who had done the phone interviews. To be fair, it was engineers interviewing other engineers and they did a bad job of it.
Furthermore, the recruiters were sloppy about the scheduling. They made mistakes with several of the dates and left me hanging on more than one occasion. That should have been my first warning.
For one, I got asked a lot of the same questions by interviewers. A lot of the questions were related to whether I could solve (in my head) a problem that had vexed them for some amount of time recently. Many more questions were of the "trivia" variety. Some of the questions were about my particular skills or my background but the interviewers seemed to be doing their best to be "Googley" in their process and try to make the interview about how smart a particular candidate is. I don't particularly like the "battle of wits" style on interview (mainly because it's hard to capture the subtlety of some problems in that environment, and because there is no way to tell someone nicely that they are wrong about a particular answer they think is right) and I guess that put me on a bad footing.
My in-person interview was a disaster. For one, there was no HR rep to greet me. I arrived at their office to find a gang of people hunched over cubicles and staring at screens. It didn't seem to be a great working environment compared to what I've been used to.
I needed to do several interviews with the staff there, one after another, who did the exact same thing from the phone interviews. The process devolved into an oral-exam style of interview and I really began to lose interest in this job.
The final bit was a skills-based interview that consisted of a poorly-constructed set of tasks to perform on a router command line. Never mind that the entire setup was contrived and that the questions were devoid of any context, but the whole thing just made me feel like I was being wrung through a wringer with no clear idea about how any of this related to the job I was interviewing for.
I tried to follow up to see if they would make an offer but the recruiter never returned another email or returned a single phone call. Honestly, this is the first time that a recruiter has ever treated me this way. All in all, I did something like 15 interviews and never got so much as a thank you (but no-thank-you) for going through the process.
I ended up getting a significantly better job than I had (with another company) but I feel that I really wasted a lot of time with these guys. Even if I wasn't a good fit, they should have at least communicated that to me. The un-returned emails after the process ended really left a bad taste in my mouth.

Screenings seemed fair based on what I have seen in the industry. While actively interviewing lately, there have been processes that are not synched, organized and structured. Their process seemed to have all of that and I understood the process and next steps clearly. Good communication across the board

I applied online and TWO MONTHS later a recruiter drop me an email and would like to have a call like 1 hour later. And recruiter requested to switch to google meet during the call which is a bit awkward.
And one week later someone arranged a peer interview with me. And recruiter ghosted after that. I am okay to receive a thank you email but not like this.
In general speaking , the recruiting is terrible and extremely slow. I will avoid any Salesforce related positions in the future.
