Hi Folks, would anyone be willing to discuss interview tips with me, please?

I have an HR screening call on Thursday for a Sr Marketing role. I'm coming from Amazon which has a very stressful interview process and wondering if Salesforce is the same. Would appreciate anyone who's willing to talk to me, especially if you're in marketing.

Thanks!

I’m not in marketing, but did come from Amazon. The Salesforce interviews are similar in that they will ask some behavioral questions that you should answer in STAR format, but overall I found it much easier. Mine was a 90 min panel interview that included me giving a presentation, vs Amazon which was a 1 hour tech phone screen and 4 back to back interviews (2 technical and 2 behavioral).

helpful

yes. they gave me a template a few days ahead of the interview and asked me to prepare a presentation on one of my technical wins.

Have interviewed a couple of people from WK over the past few weeks and have been hearing a lot about how it’s becoming a pretty horrible place to work since Susan came onboard.

One of the candidates was saying that many of the good creatives have been leaving or are planning to leave because of this. I haven’t ever worked for Susan so I have no clue. Anyone heard anything similar?
