1. Application & Initial Screening After submitting your application, a recruiter may reach out for an initial conversation. This is a general discussion about your experience, interest in the role, and salary expectations. 2. Hiring Manager Interview (30–45 minutes) If you pass the screening, you'll have a video call with the hiring manager. This interview focuses on: Your background and experience in UX/design. Your design process, particularly around research, problem-solving, and collaboration. How you've worked with stakeholders and developers in past roles. 3. Portfolio Presentation (60 minutes) This is a key stage where you present 1–2 UX case studies to a panel of designers, product managers, and potentially a researcher or developer. They’ll assess: Your ability to explain design decisions and user research. How you approach complex UX challenges. Your storytelling and communication skills. Expect follow-up questions to dig deeper into your thought process. 4. Design Challenge / Whiteboard Exercise (60–90 minutes) Some candidates are given a design challenge (either a take-home assignment or a live whiteboard exercise). This tests how you: Approach problems with a user-first mindset. Prioritise features and consider constraints. Collaborate and communicate design decisions. 5. Final Culture & Cross-functional Interviews (45–60 minutes each) The last stage often includes conversations with different teams, such as developers, product managers, or senior designers. They’ll assess: How well you align with Salesforce's design culture. Your ability to collaborate cross-functionally. How you handle feedback and iteration. Decision & Offer If successful, you'll receive an offer, usually within a week. The process can take 3–6 weeks depending on scheduling and feedback rounds.
