The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
The process started when I got an email for one of my internship applications to choose some dates for a call with recruiter. The Recruiter was super sweet and answered all my questions very patiently and also explained the complete process. This was followed by 3 rounds of interview (1 technical, 2 case study and situational based. All the interviewers were very humble and understood that I might be nervous because of the interview which helped me respond confidently.

Easy interview process, reached out to by Hiring Manager/HR then first round was a talk with a manager for the department you were interviewing where you walk them through resume and experiences that apply to the role. Replied very quickly for second round, which is a Data Analysis assessment where they send you a case with a dataset and you make a model and slide deck for data analysis.
