LMTS | Salesforce | Passed
Summary
I interviewed at Salesforce for an LMTS role, which involved multiple rounds covering algorithms, low-level design, and system design. Despite a challenging system design round and an unconventional hiring manager discussion, I received an offer but declined it as I was waiting for a response from Google.
Full Experience
Older 2 IIT's(CSE) Total Exp: 8+ Years (Mostly startups). Was part of November hiring drive
Round 1 - Algo DS Graph medium question. Did it in given time and ran all test cases. Interviewer had difficulty understanding c++ but was accomodating.
Round 2 - Algo DS + LLD Leetcode medium quesiton on Dp. Then few LLD design questions
Round 3 - Design Round with LMTS Got a really bad interviewer. The task was to design Google like news feed. I think I did pretty good on covering most of the basic things and went into deep dive on few things. Since we crossed the interview time, I cut her off and ended the interview.
Hiring Manager - Onsite with Director at Salesforce This interview was unconventional. At one point we were dicussing physics principles and aruging about fundamentals. The best round I had in salesforce interviews. Post our discussions, I really hoped that I can work under the director.
The whole interviews were finished in two weeks. Recruiter called me and informed me that I got selected for LMTS. But upon hearing that I'm waiting for google reponse, gave me a deadline of week to decide if I want to go with Salesforce or not, I said no.
The ballpark TC that recruiter said was 95+ lpa for this role
