Traditional 3 process interview. First with HR, then with VP and Technical Architect. Basic interview process with questions focused on technical side. VP interaction was cool. Explained about the business.

First, let me say that I'm certified in dev 1. I do development contracting and am pretty well experienced, but because you tend to jump around in topics quite a bit when you do contracting work I may have to look up specifics of how to do a project. This is similar to any other kind of profession in the US. The interviewer had me on webcam. He gave me two minutes to explain my background then proceeded to ask me intensely technical trivia (read: "trivial") that were deeply buried in the Salesforce developer reference documents. If he had asked me the same questions in language that is typical of the language used in any Salesforce training material I would have been fine. Knowing the answer to the questions I was asked also won't have anything to do with any job that comes over. Companies that treat their employees like cattle (eg Amazon) do the same kind of nonsense where their goal is more to trip you up than to actually assess your knowledge with practical critical thinking skills. The interviewer has a lot to learn about working up to the hard stuff and of communicating. It's pretty insulting as a technical resource to be treated in this way so I "noped" right out that one.
