To set expectations, I should say that there is no easy way to “slam dunk” the Salesforce Developer interview. There may be a lot of folks online suggesting otherwise, but in my experience, the only sure way to walk into that interview with confidence is to gain some knowledge and experience with Salesforce.

Late in my career as a software engineer for a large corporate enterprise, I began working toward making a career change. I spent a lot of time trying to absorb as much material as I could to transform myself into an interview machine. I chat about this a bit in my latest video, embedded below.

Be skeptical if anyone offers you short cuts to success. The best way to be successful in your Salesforce Developer interview is to be at peace with the time you need to study up on the platform, practice developing and deploying solutions and seeking the opportunities that best match your skills.
