Before I spoke with anyone at the company about the job or my experience, I was asked to do an exercise to set up a Salesforce org, do a small amount of configuration, populate it with data. I was also asked to be ready to speak about the data and issues I’d raise with the client. I was definitely a little put off by the exercise, since I was asked to put 3 in hours of work before anyone spoke to me. Additionally, as a Salesforce Consultant, the exercise was very easy and felt like a total waste of time. They could have gathered more about my expertise if they just spoken to me about my experience. After the exercise I spoke with someone at the company to discuss my data and architecture choices. I was then asked to speak with someone at the company with the same title, but was asked to do a case study before the conversation so we could discuss it. I finally spoke with two other folks at the company. The whole process was way too drawn out, and for such a small company it felt very impersonal. The whole process was a red flag for me.
