I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2019
Interview
The Recruiter was very hands on and responsive each step of the way. The team I interviewed with was professional: my interview process consisted of a recruiter phone interview, a phone interview with the hiring manager, then an onsite in the tower. The onsite was great - the recruiter met with me beforehand and escorted me to the interview room. Then I met with 4 team members, two of which interviewed me with hands on whiteboard/brainstorming sessions, which I really enjoyed. The role expectations were made very clear, as well as the functions of the broader team.
It would have been nice if there was an official 'end of interview' process, the way there was in the very beginning of the onsite - thankfully the last person who interviewed me had some extra time to walk me down to the first floor, because otherwise I'm not sure how I would have even gotten to the elevators to exit (since the security is very strict and your guest badge access is, understandably, limited). But other than that, it was a very streamlined process and I really appreciated how attentive my recruiter was and how professional the team was. She got back to me a few hours after the onsite with next steps, and walked me through the entire onboarding process.
So excited to join the team!

Question 1
The role: Familiarity of AB tests, campaign brainstorming, how I keep organized, ability to learn new skills etc
The company: Why MuleSoft? Why are you leaving your current job, etc

Clear communication, organized process. Appreciated their openness and even aligning a buddy within the company to learn more about their culture from. I’d be happy to interview with them again for another chance.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when a campaign wasn’t working and you made a change.
Interviews were extremely positive, with a friendly and supportive tone across four team members and leaders. Unfortunately, after almost completing the full interview loop, I was completely ghosted with no follow-up or closure. This lack of communication felt unprofessional and disappointing given the time investment required and that I was working with a recruiter. Not a good look for their people culture.

Interview
The interview process is very lengthy compared to other places I have interviewed with. It is 4 parts and the first 2 people you speak with are a recruiter and HR where they basically ask similar questions. In my experience, the hiring managers for both roles acted so impressed with my experience, our conversation, and seemed genuinely interested in me possibly joining the team, to the extent they were going to skip the panel interview. But then I received a non-selection letter. I also interviewed for a role and got all the way through the process , for them to tell me they didn’t have permission to hire for the role right now but would be in touch. I have wasted so much of my time. It would be nice if they would tell you upfront and be honest if they don’t believe you are a good fit for what they are looking for, instead of making you think you may get offered the role.
