Account Executive at Salesforce.com

No Offer – Interviewed in Chicago, IL Nov 2010 – Reviewed Jan 5, 2011

Interview Details – Phone interviews, in person interviews, etc. Interview process was very easy but their is a formula that sf.com is looking for. Only seasoned, highly successful enterprise sales reps should apply. If you don't have 10 years of quota experience as lead sales rep - always exceeding number. It would be a great company to work for. At any point during the interview process, if anyone says no, it feels like the answer is no for everyone. They are a great company and can afford to be selective.

Interview Question – Give 7 examples of how you navigated a company, connected the dots within an organization, used an event, and used a reference to close a deal.   Answer Question
