I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at VMware in Apr 2022
Interview
I applied through Linkedin, in several days a recruiter contacted me to schedule initial screening with a developer. At the screening interview they asked really basic questions, after the interview I didn't get any response and was thinking that I'm rejected. After 3 weeks the recruiter asked me for a power day with 3 tech interviews. At the interviews the people were nice but they were not interested in asking me questions I was left with the impression that they have filled up the position and wasn't sure why do they schedule interviews when the position is filled - just reject the interview and save 3 hours for everyone. After that day I didn't got any response I sent several mails to the recruiter - no response.
It was really strange interview with no communication from their side.
One month process with one four hour final round interview, first the recruiter reached out and then I was invited for the final round where three Vmware employees interviewed me
Phone screen, then easy interviews.
Was given an excuse why it could take a while to hear back, then confirmed rejection later on. I can't recommend interviewing with the Salesforce team, but it may be better in other parts of the company.
