Anyone else run into independent or firm SF recruiters that are a little *too* into it? Interviewed with one and they had SF branded everything on and in their office.

They were shocked that I didn’t go to any events and wasn’t really all that active in the communities. This is just a job and a software I use. 🤷‍♂️

Our team would ask if we drank the koolaide before all hands calls with Marc. He once opened with “we’re going to change the world today, our biggest announcement in years, it will impact all of our users, and dramatically change the way business is done” I kid you not the announcement was a new field type.

I'm still in the beginning of my Salesforce Journey and I kind get this lol. I watched Dreamforce online last year and enjoyed it. But it was a bit much.

This is set up Tuesday.
Why do you think the manager wants to meet again? Good? Bad? I felt great about the interview when we ended.
