I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Adobe (München, Bayern) in Jan 2022
Interview
Transparent, clear stages, pretty demanding but overall good.
Interviews with the recruiter, hiring manager, the team members, panel interview.
The panel interview was tough but fair.
I would recommend it in general.

I applied online. I interviewed at Adobe (San Jose) in Mar 2023
Interview
The people were very nice and friendly. On time. They were also very transparent about the role and duties . Welcoming and made the interview easy I wasn’t nervous while interviewing with them
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Adobe (Stockholm, ) in Feb 2024
Interview
The interview process seemed quite straightfoward: 3 steps, starting with the meeting with a talent acquisition/HR representative, then a meeting with the hiring manager, and the last meeting being an exercise to present to the team & related managers.
What shocked me though was round 1 with the HR representative, which was a soul-less meeting to fill a questionnaire, plus a very rude attitude. Below some examples.
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
The HR representative showed up, “sorry I’m a couple of minutes late, yes I’m good, you? Ok, why are you here?” I suppose they wanted to know why I applied for the role.
Then proceeded asking me questions off a list, with no empathy nor interest for any of my answers. Particular focus on why/if I left my previous positions and if I'm still employed full time now.
They spent a couple of words about how the process looks like “and if you don’t receive any answer by mid-week next week you can assume we didn’t select you”. I asked if I could reach out to hear feedback, if that would be the scenario - they said it’s not encouraged because they have many candidates.
They left 5 minutes for my questions, and dismissed half of them. One of them was about how success is measured for employees and how growth is valued. Not answered.
