I keep seeing job postings for sales roles that require CRM experience, especially Salesforce. I’ve only worked with HubSpot and spreadsheets. How steep is the learning curve for Salesforce?

Hello. I love the Salesforce CRM and am very interested. I’m a 25 year mortgage professional but kids are grown and now I get to step away from S/E and step into W2 space doing the type of work I enjoy.
Any feedback on the culture and work conditions at SF?

Hubspot and SFDC are pretty different. But every company customizes their SFDC user interface for their own business, so it's really more about learning the (future) employer's version of it.

Doesn’t take long to learn if you understand CRM systems as a whole

It's the most commonly uses most popular and the largest market share of CRM's and has become the standard and they're actual levels many levels to learn depending on how much a particular job requires and you can study and achieve different levels and many companies require you are at a certain level with Salesforce as it is the "Gold Stabdard" of CRM's ! Salesforce won the CRM Wars with Corporations ! I haven't had to use Salesforce for many many years although I have used it in the past. I have used so many different CRM's !
