I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Adobe
Interview
Initially recruited at a college career fair and scheduled for an on-campus interview the next day that was more to get to know me than test my skills. I was was then invited to attend a selective mock-career fair on the Adobe campus that allowed me to meet the various teams. A mutual ranking system was set up for candidates and teams to select who they would like to interview the following day with the highest mutual matches set up. I interviewed three different teams in the company the next day.

I applied online. I interviewed at Adobe (San Jose, CA)
Interview
Was sent an OA with 3 standard DSA coding problems and moved on to a 45-minute technical interview. I was asked an easy-medium LeetCode problem. I then had a behavioral final round interview with 2 engineering managers. Did well in the final round, but the team matching did not go in my favor. Got rejected.

How do you approach contributing code to a large codebase?
First had an easy Online assessment. Next was a panel interview with three engineers. Interview was 15 min behavioral, then 45 min difficult leetcode style dynamic programming questions on hackerrack.
I applied online. I interviewed at Adobe (Lehi, UT) in Nov 2025
Interview
Completed a Hackerrank OA. Couple of LC easy, not too bad. Round 1 interview was a really odd algorithm question that was really weird. Harder to wrap my head around what it was asking than to actually solve the problem. Probably LC Medium or Hard. After that I got a final round interview that went amazing. I had a competing offer shortly after this interview, but I made sure to inform adobe about the timeline. Over a month passed and they still weren't able to give me an answer. To this day they still haven't rejected my application or extended an offer. Told me they're keeping my application in the pool for the time being and that hopefully they'll have more information for me "soon."
