I was contacted by an inhouse recruiter on LinkedIn, then the following steps: - Short call with recruiter - Longer interview with Recruiter - Hiring Manager interview - Assessment day from 9-15, in that were another two interviews and a business case study. The Assessment day: 2 30 minutes interviews with Hiring Managers 1 30 minute session where you can ask questions to current BDA's (non-formal, non-judged). A case study as follows: A week in advance you get a information on a potential client of Salesforce, their needs and desires etc. You then must prepare a recommendation for them on which SF products are best suited for them. You should prepare some slides with their needs, challenges, your recommended products for them, and questions to ask them. On the assessment day, you're paired with one or two people, and you get around 45 minutes to prepare a 20 minute presentation, where your Hiring Managers are the clients in this role-play. NOTE: It's not necessarily about in-depth product knowledge, more about collaboration and communication skills. All in all it took a good 2 weeks from initial conversation to being hired. Generally I noticed everyone was very friendly and happy to help, my recruiter really felt like 'on my side' and to help me out wherever possible. He gave me tips on the best way to conduct the interview with the hiring manager, and he offered a prep call for the assessment day. Both incredibly helpful!
