Any Salesforce developers have experience interviewing at big tech companies? FAANG and the like? I've only worked in consultancies, their technical interviewing was more solution based (so architect-esque). I did zero coding challenges. But writing code in Salesforce my specialty, and I'll be aiming for big tech shortly 🙂

I did an interview for google once for a salesforce dev position. They basically had me write a trigger from scratch, which would normally be easy if I had documentation in front of me but it was hard to remember all that stuff and syntax on the spot. I also misunderstood his prompt so I just wrote the wrong code anyways and so I didn’t move on in the process. This was also four years ago

Oof. That would make me feel so put on the spot and make me feel so anxious. I would probably tank a Google interview.

I’ve interviewed with Coinbase, Meta, Google, Shopify as a developer

Be prepared for in depth technical questions and hands on coding from scratch!

Hey, one question I forgot to ask: what language did they let you choose? I'm familiar with Apex and JS, though I'm most comfortable in Apex. I've written java/ruby code before...but I'm just wondering if I'll be able to solve the code challenges with the proprietary language that is Apex.

Many thanks.

I’ve been ghosted after every final interview during my recent job search, but never had I been ghosted before even having the first call??

I had two rounds of discussion (more than a month ago) and the recruiter informed me that they’ll be scheduling the HR discussion and then be rolling out the offer.

There’s no reason you have to put up with a job you hate. I spent many years working in a toxic environment with a boss who gossiped and lead through fear. He wasn’t really much of a leader but basically a foreman. And he could make my existence miserable. I admit that it wasn’t easy to find another job but the bottom line is: trust your guts. If you feel something is wrong it’s because it probably is. Don’t second guess yourself. Look for options and and fight for your mental health.
