I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Remote, OR) in Oct 2018
Interview
I got referred to a friend's team at Salesforce, but at that time, that team already had great candidate in the process. My recruiter then suggested a new role from another team, which turns out to be more relatable to what I want to do.
