The interview process starts with a recruiter phone screening. After that, there's an onsite interview where you have to complete a coding challenge (I used JavaScript, but any language should be fine since they use SaleForce). This is followed by a technical discussion about the code you wrote. Finally, your code is reviewed, and you'll get an email about whether you were accepted.

Behavioral Technical
It was a 4 stage interview process. It started with a call, then 2 face to face interviews, and finished with a final call with the boss. There were quite a number of interviews for the level of role I was applying for. It was difficult to keep it hidden from my employer at the time but Financial Force were flexible with timings to help in that situation.
