Interviewed Oct 2010 in Bangalore (India) (took 2 days)
Adobe was(rather still is) one of my dream company. I had applied through a online portal. Unexpetedly i got mail next day morning. Interveiew was 2 days after getting the mail. I was not fully prepared then( funny thing is.. then I used to work in mainframe, but java is my passion or subject of interest :) ).
1st round was : written test ( analytical abilty, quants ) : very easy( except 2/3 qts )
2nd round : Java Technical apptitude ( multiple choices + some silly descriptive semester type qts )
3rd : 1:1 most.. the most probably was a SE like me.. asking lots of qts like ( some from collections, email validations, string reverse logic etc etc ) : easy
4th round: 1:1 .. i thik he was ml/ta. Things were getting difficult. He was asking hell lots of qts( fibonacci recursive, iterators, threads , 2/3 well known puzzles, new things in java 1.6 syntax etc etc) : it was at least 1.5 hr
5 round : Ohh man.. it was a bit difficult. that guy was an ML(5 yrs exp). Asked several technical qts, program, puzzles. I had managed to ans all somehow :P, but atlast he asked me to write 10 test cases for a condition like to test if the 'dir' command ( customized) is working or not. it was silly. I was struggling to mention 10 cases for this thing.. but somehow managed it( some points which i had mentioned were really funny :P.. but what can i do... the qts itself was a piece of joke ..dont knw y didnt ask me to wrte 20 cases for that ..newaz).. i had cleard that too..
then I had to fill up one form mentioning all the details( same things which i had already mentioned in my cv).
then the showstopper round
6th round : with hiring manager.. some blah blah qts like why u r changing u r tech domain and things..
then he had asked me to write a program .. which takes 3 lengths as input of a triangle, and checks all the possibilty to form different kinda triangale.. (all validations ).. easy one
I was then almost in cloud7 :D.. but :(
the last qts was a puzzle..
[ A man was going from city A to B with his camel and 3000 bananas. The distance btwn A and B = 1000 ml. that stupid camel eats 1 banana/ml. What is the highest no of banans , the man can trasport from A to B.
cond: that man cant carry any banana with him. Only that camel can.]
I had spend atleast 20 mins. He had given me hints too... but the truth is i couldnt solv that. He was also upset atlast. that was the only thing which i couldnt ans.. :( still feel depressed .. but :) life goes on yaar.. ha ha
( forgot to mention.. 5th and 6 th round was 3/4 days after the first day ).
[ Ignore all typo errors :P.. after writing the last few lines.. dont hv mood to recheck again ]
Hope, these info will be useful for someone of you. All the best guys..
Thanks
M.... .

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Bangalore (India) (took 1+ week)
My overall experience of Adobe interview was worse. Interviewers and HR lacked professionalism.
I have heard most of the people saying positively about Adobe interviews. However I was unfortunate to get rejected in my first round of technical interview as I was interviewed 'to know, what i don't know'?
> Got a mail informing that my resume is shortlisted and asking whether I could take the written test (Quantitative/Analytical and Testing) on weekends (actually the best part ).
> I was present in adobe 10 mintutes before the schedule time of written test. There were quite a few people who had also come to take the written test. However the HR was late by half an hour.
> The written test is pretty easy. I was told from HR that i would be informed in a week about the result of written test.
> The next weekend I got a call from HR saying that I have cleared the written test and asked me whether I could come for Techincal Interview (4 rounds) in a weekday. I was OK with it and said yes. Then the HR told me that he/she would send me interview deatils via mail. But the confirmation mail was sent in the late evening just before the day of my interview after several followup's with HR.
> The day had come for technical round, I was present in adobe 10 mintutes before the schedule time.
This time HR was available in time.
> I was waiting for the interviewer in a discussion room. One of the interviwer walked in to the room and asked me to wait for few minutes as another member from his/her team would also join. You know what, the interviewer did not introduce himself and also was just working on his laptop. After a minute or so I myself asked him whether I could know his name? I guess he/she felt embarrassed and then got introduced.
> After few minutes another interviewer joined and the same happened, he/she did not introduce him/herself.
> They did not had a hard copy of my resume. So, i offered them a copy of my resume as I had few.
Technical Round:
> First question: Tell me about yourself.
> Second Question:
On a scale of 1 to 10 how much I rate myself on below topics? ( This is the question which I hate the most personally. Then why is the interview at all, a questionaire would have been suefficient?)
Manual Testing - I rated, 9.
Autoamtion testing - 8
Writing SQL queries - 4
Security Testing - 4
Security Testing concepts - 4
> They started asking me all Web and RDBMS related questions which is not my area of expertise and I had also not mentioned the same in my resume.
> There were few questions on testing concepts but it was all bookish.
> Not even a single question was asked about my current projects and only few questions were asked related to the skill sets i have acquired.
> While the whole interview is going on, the interviewers were actually working with their laptops.
> Finally they were in a hurry and left the discussion room asking me to wait for HR.
> HR turned up and asked me to wait in reception.
> I waited for more than a hour and nobody turned up. Meanwhile I tried calling the HR on his cell who was coordinating my interview, but could not reach.
> After an hour or HR came to me and asked whether I finished all my tech rounds. I said only one round has finished and I was asked to wait. HR asked me to wait again for few minutes.
> After 5 minutes, HR came back and said this is all for the day as the interviewers were in some meeting and HR would get in touch with me with result.
> Finally after few days I got a mail saying that i was not selected.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Bangalore (India) (took a day)
I had a telephonic interview at adobe and it was good and at last the interviewer told that I can expect a positive outcome.
The questions were mostly from my experience and a few logical question.
However did not got any further call or response from their end. On mailing the recruiter I got a reply that the Person who took interview is on leave and she did not get the feedback. I tried to followup on mail and then no further reply from their end.
After a month, another recruiter from abode called me for a new opening and said that she will be scheduling a discussion with the hiring team but after that no further communication from their end.
Overall Message: The abode recruitment team is very slow in conducting the interview process. Worst they do not give a proper status.
Do not wait for their replies. Better to apply abode jobs via consultancy as they are good to follow up.

Interviewed Apr 2007 in Bangalore (India) (took 2 days)
The first round of screening was a written test comprising of questions in C, both subjective and Objective. The standard of the test was good.
After a few days , I got a call for the on-site interview. 4 interviews were conducted which lasted for about 3-4 hours. One of them was through video-conferencing. The interviews stressed a lot on data structures and coding, primarily data structures.
