I applied online. I interviewed at Adobe (San Jose, CA)
Interview
Was sent an OA with 3 standard DSA coding problems and moved on to a 45-minute technical interview. I was asked an easy-medium LeetCode problem. I then had a behavioral final round interview with 2 engineering managers. Did well in the final round, but the team matching did not go in my favor. Got rejected.

I applied online. I interviewed at Adobe (Lehi, UT) in Nov 2025
Interview
Completed a Hackerrank OA. Couple of LC easy, not too bad. Round 1 interview was a really odd algorithm question that was really weird. Harder to wrap my head around what it was asking than to actually solve the problem. Probably LC Medium or Hard. After that I got a final round interview that went amazing. I had a competing offer shortly after this interview, but I made sure to inform adobe about the timeline. Over a month passed and they still weren't able to give me an answer. To this day they still haven't rejected my application or extended an offer. Told me they're keeping my application in the pool for the time being and that hopefully they'll have more information for me "soon."
