Many rounds of interviews. First was phone with recruiter asking about experience. Second was phone interview with the hiring manager, essentially going over the same things of just my experience and background. After that, there was a data challenge where you are given a dataset with no prompt and told to find interesting insights and send a slide deck with your code. After that, two more phone interviews with people on the team or similar teams, this one being more technical in nature. Lastly were onsite interviews, one visit and 5 interviews, all technical in nature with a few cultural fit questions.
The disappointing part was making it through this whole process, and then at the end being turned down with no feedback. I reached out to the recruiter, as well as the hiring manager, and neither will respond with any sort of feedback. Pretty disappointing with how much time I committed to them. I was told going in that really they only hire people who were referred, or people of minorities/women, which neither applied to me. As I got further along, I doubted that more and more, but after getting no feedback, it makes me wonder.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Adobe in Mar 2018
Interview
There are two rounds of interview for the internship. They asked me questions like Would you like to work in a team or by yourself? And they are really nice people. You need to prove that you can work with others in a team. The second round, people who interviewed me was my manager.
I applied online. I interviewed at Adobe (London, England) in Jul 2017
Interview
Applied through Pareto looking for a Business IT / Analysis Role.
Told this would be a similar role, would involve lots of IT and Analysis.
Had to prepare a presentation before 'Why I want a Career in Sales?' - was informed that I can talk about the business Analysis/ IT aspect.
When I got there I quickly found out that it was just a pure sales role. I kept upbeat about it but it did not last long.
There were about 50 people there and we all had to start by introducing ourselves and an 'inspirational person'.
There were 2 group activities with 10 people in each group. It involved decision making exercises and a vague way of advertising yourself.
There was also a presentation we had to give (not in a group, something that was prepared before - Presentation was ' Why I want a career is Sales?'
There was a very short 1-1 interview as well.
The main issue with the day is that it started at 8am and ended at 6pm.
I understand that it is meant to be an intense day but for most of the day you are waiting for the next stage of the process and as you are in groups of 10 everyone talks over each other. Even if you try to take the lead and calm things down, it does not work.
