      Named Account Executive Interview

      Feb 16, 2018
      Anonymous employee
      Boston, MA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Salesforce (Boston, MA)

      Interview

      A phone interview with two recruiters and a manager, a panel interview in person, and a presentation in person. They also liked to see that I took the time to understand the company as well as the field that I interviewed for. Nothing too out of the ordinary here.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Questions were asked about my experience (standard), my reasons for wanting to join the team, and how I thought I would make myself successful.

      Named Account Executive Interview

      Jul 23, 2025
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Salesforce in Jul 2025

      Interview

      The interview process consists of 3 rounds. Initial recruiter screen, interviews with hiring managers (RVPs) and then a panel presentation. They like you to interview with a few different leaders to see where you would be the best fit. My candidate experience was not ideal. The recruiters did not communicate in a timely fashion. RVPs are required to enter feedback within 24 hours in Workday so it should not take two weeks to get feedback. Multiple emails and phone calls were ignored and it felt like I was chasing down a prospect just to get a response. Happy I did not get an offer as the organization showed their true colors during the interview process.

      Zürich
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Zürich) in Jul 2023

      Interview

      Hatte 2 Gespräche: - erstes Gespräch mit HR war sehr entspannt und positiv leider danach wurde nicht wie besprochen, das Interview aufgesetzt. Nach dem Nachhacken hatte ich das 2. Gespräch. -2. Gespräch war mit der direkten Vorgesetzten. Leider war sie nicht wirklich vorbereitet und das Interview war nicht strukturiert. Die Fragen wurden nicht wirklich konstruktiv angegangen und persönliche Meinung, hatte viel Einwirkung, fand ich persönlich sehr schade. Dass die Person, nicht auf die Gründe eingegangen ist. Auch bezüglich der Timeline wurde nichts konkretes gesagt. Nach mehreren Malen nachhaken hatte ich nach 4 Wochen immer noch keine Rückmeldung, was nicht professionell ist. Auf dem Canidate Platform habe ich über die Absage erfahren. Finde der Arbeitgeber kann auch Zeit und Respekt gegenüber potenziellen Bewerbern geben. Würde ich das Unternehmen nicht bereits kennen, hätte ich den Bewerbungsprozess aufgrund des unprofessionellem Verhalten schon längst abgebrochen.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      - Wieso Sales? - Wieso Salesforce? - Warum die Industrie? - Warum der Wechsel vom jetzigen Arbeitgeber?
