Salesforce administrator guide: what they own, the skills to test, interview questions and India vs Philippines
Core responsibilities
- Create and retire users, assign profiles, roles and permission sets, and keep license counts tidy
- Build and maintain Flows that route leads, update opportunities and notify the right owner
- Keep data clean with validation rules, duplicate rules and scheduled Data Loader jobs
- Design page layouts, record types and list views so reps see only the fields they need
- Ship reports and dashboards for pipeline, forecast and support queues
- Test the three Salesforce releases each year in a sandbox before they reach production
- Work the admin ticket queue and train new hires on the parts of the org they touch
Skills worth testing
| Skill | Strong signal |
|---|---|
| Security model | Explains profiles, permission sets, sharing rules and role hierarchy, and fixes a visibility bug live |
| Flow Builder | Replaces an old Workflow Rule with a record-triggered Flow, with fault paths and tests |
| Data quality | Writes validation rules reps accept and runs a clean dedupe with a rollback plan |
| Reporting | Builds a joined report or custom report type that answers a real pipeline question |
| Release discipline | Moves changes through sandboxes with change sets or a DevOps tool and keeps notes |
| Stakeholder work | Turns a vague sales ops request into clear requirements before touching setup |
Interview questions and how Exordiom vets
- A rep says they cannot see an account their manager can see. How do you trace it?
- Walk us through a Flow you built that saved your sales team real time.
- How would you stop duplicate leads from web forms and list uploads?
- Sales wants a new required field tomorrow. What do you check before you add it?
- How do you prepare the org for a seasonal Salesforce release?
- When should an admin hand a request to a Salesforce developer?
Red flags: granting admin rights to fix access issues, building automation straight in production, piling up fields nobody reports on, and having no record of what changed or why.
We recruit admins who are employed today, so there's no bench waiting for work. Shortlisted admins clear an AI interview written from your requirements, then human rounds that score character, acumen, grit and experience. After day one, Hypercare check-ins run separately with you and your admin in week 1 and week 2, then every four weeks starting in week 6.
