“I want to make a switch to Salesforce but I’m clueless about where to begin. 🤷‍♂️” If this is the question that’s stuck in your head and looking for some answers, then you’re at the right place.

Not knowing where to begin is probably the most confusing thing when starting something new. But thanks to the entire Salesforce’s Developer Relations team, you now have a one stop shop and that is #Journey2Salesforce.

Intro to Journey2Salesforce Ecosystem

#Journey2Salesforce is career development program run by Salesforce. It starts from ground zero and goes all the way up to connecting you directly to organizations which are looking to hire Salesforce professionals.
