- Adobe Account Executive Interview Experience: prospecting task and no closureAdobe · Account Executive · HR Screen · Jul 2026No response
The process lasted about four rounds and felt more demanding than a standard recruiter-to-manager path. It began with a discovery-style conversation and a peer interview. I was also asked to prospect for a meeting with the hiring manager. That task was awkward because the hiring manager did not answer calls and had a private LinkedIn profile, so outreach was not straightforward even though the pr…
- Adobe Account Executive interview: supportive first round followed by radio silenceAdobe · Account Executive · Jul 2026No response
The process felt normal and contained, with about three rounds. It began with a recruiter conversation, then a task, and finally a meeting with the hiring manager. Communication ran smoothly at first, and the recruiter was especially supportive. I received helpful, actionable feedback instead of vague notes. After the first round, the experience did not continue that way. I got nothing back. Ther…
- Adobe Research Analyst Interview Experience: One-hour research conversationAdobe · Research Analyst · Intern · Technical Screen · Jul 2026Offer
After a recruiter touchpoint, I had one technical conversation with a team member. It lasted an hour and stayed mainly focused on the research I had already done and where I wanted to take it during the internship. The process moved quickly. I had the interview and received a decision about two weeks later. There was not much jumping between steps. It was essentially a discussion about my work an…
- Five Relaxed Rounds Built Around OOP and API DesignAdobe · Software Engineer · Onsite · Apr 2026
This one felt pretty comfortable to interview with — slow pace, none of that being-chased-the-whole-time feeling. Each round was an hour, and in some rounds close to half the time was just chatting. The problems were medium-to-easy, but they really like steering things toward object-oriented design and code design — the questions here are different from what other companies ask. A quick note: I'm…
- Four Rounds on the AEP Team, Recruiter Wanted More System Design ExperienceAdobe · Software Engineer · Onsite · Sep 2025
This was for the AEP team — a pit that a friend referred me into. Four rounds total, overall not too hard. Round 1 was billed as tech/coding, but after we finished going over my resume, the interviewer just started asking about request latency analysis, plus some front-end/back-end fundamentals-style questions. I initially expected coding or system design, but it ended up basically being a conver…
- Scala Trivia, Then a Surprise LeetCode ClassicAdobe · Software Engineer · Technical Screen · Sep 2025Rejected
This is one of the many applications I scattered around blindly. I applied to GenStudio on the DX team (people on the forum say DX is a "poison team," same as AEP?). When I applied, it happened to line up with Adobe's legendary summer break, so by the time HR came back from vacation and finally reached out to me, I'd already piled up several rejection letters from other places, hah, wry laugh. Th…
- Four Rounds, Team Shutdown, and a Month-Long Wait for RejectionAdobe · Software Engineer · Onsite · Jul 2025Rejected
I finished interviewing right before they shut down the team at the end of last month. Then the HM took a two-week vacation, and after waiting almost a month, I got the classic "they were touched but rejected me anyway" treatment — moved to another candidate. It was for the AEP team, a referral pit from a friend. Four rounds total, overall not too hard. The first round was billed as tech/coding,…
