I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Salesforce
Interview
The interview process was really smooth, and all the interviewers were friendly. They are always ready to learn more about you and help you out in case you are confused about something.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked conceptual DSA questions, which were medium Leetcode level, then some OOPs questions, which included examples and use cases. Then some basic java debugging questions. All questions were easy if you are strong with your fundamentals.
My interview journey with Salesforce was a valuable learning experience. I started my preparation by strengthening my fundamentals in Data Structures, Algorithms, DBMS, and Operating Systems, while also practicing coding problems regularly. This helped me clear the initial screening round. In the second round, the focus shifted toward system design, which exposed some gaps in my preparation. Although I was not able to move forward after that round, the experience helped me understand the importance of structured problem-solving and system design concepts. It also motivated me to prepare more deeply for future product-based company interviews.
Round0: OA 3 questions, were easy maybe doing it quicker would help
Round1: Lot of basic level LLD questions and 3 basic DSA questions like implement binarysearch, swap two variables without using temp and merge two sorted linked lists
