Hey All. I had my 2nd round interviews for a Lead Solution Engineer role at Salesforce on Monday (2 days ago). It was w/ 2 separate SEs, and I thought both interviews went very well. Have yet to hear from the recruiter, though, which seems odd. Especially given how responsive the recruiter's been prior to this.

Is that normal? Do I just need to be patient or should I mentally prepare for a rejection? Thanks!

It was over a week before I heard back during one part of the process. Don't panic yet.

You should wait at least two weeks. In the meantime, keep looking for other opportunities too.

They’re probably interviewing a few more. Follow up if you don’t hear back in a week. If it’s analytics, some of them might be at the Tableau Conference this week. Your OTE should be 180-220k OTE plus RSU depending on your experience and location. Good luck!

Hiring freeze maybe?

Good luck! I recently applied for a SE manager role (like a couple days ago recently) and the position was pulled yesterday (due to the freeze no doubt). My status still says under consideration but I’m sure it may be some time.

All, this is my first post and I just want to share that I passed the first Amazon interview for Technical Program Manager and am heading to on-site virtual interviews!

But the work itself is soul crushing and the industry is stagnant. To those who are 40+ years old, is it crazy to change now?
