Hi everyone, I'm looking to transition careers to Salesforce. I have a 2nd interview for a Salesforce consultancy and this round is a 1.5hr assessment with 1 hr to build out a demo and then 30 mins to present and respond to client questions. For anyone who has done an interview like this before what advice can you give me about how to prepare? I have not had hands-on Salesforce work experience aside from trailhead.
TIA Accenture Slalom Consulting Deloitte EY

I have not had a similar interview but I am in Salesforce myself and I’d assume they’re looking at your data modeling abilities. So look into that as well as relationships. Which relationship to use and why. Also, make sure to ask them lots of questions when building your case. GL!

That is too much to ask of a candidate. Good luck 👍

For any demos you present, the focus is more on your capabilities around naration of a business problem, its business impact and relating a solution that you have defined and configured. In most of the scenarios. you can pick your use case (confirm with your recruiter), it can be a simple use case, but the approach is what matters and offcourse there might be questions around why you picked a certain solution over other, in case of multiple options. All the best!

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.

Has anyone else faced this while interviewing with KGS (Customer Advisory)?

Tough time getting past final step: I’ve been trying to make a career shift for 10 months now and continue to get rejected at the last step. Im confident in the value I can provide and do well at presenting it. However, once it’s comes down to me and 1-2 other candidates, I repeatedly have been turned down for the person who has more relevant experience as they’re a safer bet for the employer. Would love advice from anyone who’s dealt with this before. It’s tough to get them to take a risk on me
