Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Adobe (Edimburgo, Scozia) nel mese di ago 2022
Colloquio
Very fast process; completed code-review exercise, then 3 1-hour interviews back-to-back, then had an offer the same day.
The interviews themselves were surprisingly old-fashioned. All technical questions were knowledge-based (e.g., describe X feature of Java, Y feature of React...) and there was no problem-solving element. There was no design or architecture question.
Behavioural questions were slightly better (I could drive them), but I didn't really observe them asking meaningful follow-up questions or quantifying the impact of my actions.
Everyone was very pleasant, but quality of interview process was one of my primary reasons for declining this offer.

Domanda 1
Various superficial technology-specific questions, such as you would find searching for "Java interview questions" or similar. Covered difference between == and equals(), Interfaces vs Abstract classes, why you'd implement a getter rather than have a public field.

Indian recruiter calling from india who have no technical knowledge, were asking system design questions to me. Worst experience. When i asked about the team or product then recruiter couldn't explain that.
A series of interviews gauging API design, System Design, behavioral and computer science fundamentals. There was 4 interviews total. Two were virtual Two in person. Overall it was a very positive experience. It took almost 2 and a half months

This was for a role on the Adobe Firefly product. I spoke to the recruiter twice via Teams (both times their camera was off -- if you're going to schedule a video call, turn your video on maybe). The recruiter barely asked meaningful questions. I'm not sure if I was even fully qualified for this position but they pushed me through. The next step was a technical assessment in which I faced one of my greatest fears: being rejected mid-interview.

The recruiter only cared if I was able to work in the US and if I was comfortable working hybrid. The technical screen was to debug an application and apparently I "wasted" 5-10 minutes before looking in the correct place for errors. (God forbid someone is nervous during an interview and takes 5-10 minutes to get their bearings.)
