I noticed some Solution Architect Roles open up at Salesforce. Curious for anyone in the role, how was the interview process and what are the things you like/dislike about the role in Professional Services?

I went through the interview process recently and started a few weeks ago. The interview process wasn’t bad. As others have said expect a consulting skills round, technical round, and presentation. Google common behavioral interview questions and be prepared with good stories about your projects and experience. The tech interview questions are a bit open ended—focus on demonstrating your knowledge of best practices. My interviewers were friendly and I felt they wanted me to succeed. The presentation round is again focused on your experience. Now that I’m in the role the biggest pro is the quality of smart people around me. If you want to do public sector work, I think the projects we have are interesting, and while nothing is a guarantee, likely have job security.

First is a call with HR. Then 2 interviews (1 technical/SF skills, 1 soft skills/behavioral interview). And final presentation.

Hello Everyone,

I have received offer letter from Optum Global Solutions India recently and I am seriously considering joining it(I also have offers from Deloitte USI and Verizon).
My breakup annexure mentions 4 components apart from RRP and PF. Basic, HRA, Flexi, Special Allowance. Either the Special Allowance or the Flexi is not included in the CTC mentioned in offer letter. So I want to understand how the Flexi and Special Allowance are paid monthly. Can someone please help?
