Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
The process started with a technical phone conversation with one of the managers.
There was a 3-hour programming project in the second round.
After that, I went for the onsite interview at Salesforce headquarters in San Francisco. The company has a nice office, and the interviewers were friendly and knowledgeable. There were 3 technical rounds and a lunch interview with the team's manager.
Each technical round had two engineers. The questions were not difficult but had broad coverage.
They covered everything from front-end to back-end, as it was a full-stack position.
After the onsite, I got a callback to do another phone screen with the Principal Engineer. I received the offer by the end of that day.
