Lot of people are hired by referrals, so they all know each other from their former companies

What Salesforce employees have to say about interviewing?

“Successful Salesforce engineers are great at writing code, and in order to find out how great you are at writing code, we use a programming test. The programming test is one of the best ways to gauge your coding skills. That’s why our test makes sure you have an editor, a debugger, and a good amount of time to analyze a problem and form a solution—it’s more than just how well you react under pressure.”

“We use HackerRank as our coding platform. This means that you can take the test at a time that works for you—whether that’s during the day or in the middle of the night. When you move to this stage in the process, we provide you with setup information and a link to start the test. "
