I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Adobe in Jan 2018
Interview
HR scheduled two phone interviews, both of them were either delayed or cancelled. It was the worst experience I've ever had in my life. I was asked only one hard level leetcode question in the first coding interview and I was informed rejected after the absence of my second interviewer. It was completely wasting my time (waiting for the missing interviewer) and I highly doubt the structure of their interview setup (what's the point of judging data science knowledge by a single hard leetcode problem?) They could have hired an SE if that's what they wanted.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Similar to the basic calculator problem in leetcode.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Adobe in Feb 2017
Interview
I was recommended by a company member. The member talks to me first and asks me some backgrounds. Then he said to me that he would contact me in a week. After one week, two research data scientists contact me and ask me some technical questions including my research topics, statistics, and coding techniques. The process is technical but I think they care more about research ability.

Question 1
Q1: tell about your research topics and what is the difference between your methods and classic methods
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Adobe in Feb 2017
Interview
Got referred through a friend at Adobe. There were 2 rounds of interviews:
1) Programming round: Questions that involved arrays, dynamic programming, memoization etc. It was mostly about the pseudo code and not about the actual code.
2) Probability, Statistics and general ML round: Started with basic questions about distributions. Then some questions about linear regression, logistic regression etc.
