Interview Experience with Salesfoce for MTS role

To be honest, this whole experience with the Salesforce MTS hiring process has left me pretty disheartened.

A good friend of mine had kindly referred me for the MTS role. Shortly after, a recruiter reached out to schedule a call with the hiring manager. I was genuinely excited — not just because of the opportunity, but because I admire the work Salesforce does and was eager to be part of that journey.

The conversation with the manager went deep. We discussed my resume, my day-to-day responsibilities as an engineer, and the kind of problems I solve regularly. It felt like a great conversation — he even mentioned that he was interested in moving forward. Naturally, I was hopeful.

But then… nothing.

I waited. I followed up with the recruiter — not once, not twice, but five times over the span of three weeks. No replies. No updates. Not even a short acknowledgment. Just complete silence. And honestly, that part hurt the most.

After weeks of waiting and uncertainty, I finally received an email saying I wasn’t selected — with no feedback, no context, and no explanation. Just a cold rejection note after investing all that time, energy, and hope.

I understand not every candidate gets selected. That’s just how the process works. But what’s hard to accept is the lack of basic communication. As someone actively seeking an opportunity, all I was hoping for was a little clarity, a response, or at the very least — a sense of being treated with respect.

We’re all humans at the end of the day. A simple message or acknowledgement can go a long way. I still admire Salesforce for the incredible company it is, but I genuinely hope the recruiting process can be more empathetic and transparent for future candidates.

This was more than just a rejection — it was a deeply disappointing experience that I wish had been handled with a bit more humanity.

I recently had my first round interview with Salesforce, and it turned out to be a really insightful conversation. This round was with a senior manager who oversees two teams — and I’m being considered for one of them.

Most of the discussion revolved around my recent work experience, how I handle on-call support, and the way I approach production issues under pressure. I really appreciated how the questions dove deep into real-world scenarios, not just theory — it gave me the chance to talk through how I think on my feet when something breaks in production and how I make sure to keep customers and stakeholders informed.

Feeling excited about the possibility of contributing my skills to Salesforce and looking forward to the next steps! 🚀✨
