Summary

I interviewed for Adobe's Computer Scientist 1 position in Bangalore, completed four rounds covering resume, DSA, SQL, system design, and behavioral questions, received positive feedback for the first three rounds, but the process is currently on hold due to a hiring freeze.

Full Experience

I interviewed for the Computer Scientist 1 (CS1) position at Adobe Bangalore during the hiring drive on August 13.

Here was my interview experience:

Round 1: The round was mainly based on my resume. I was also asked to design a cache.

Round 2: I was asked one DSA question (Asteroid Collision), one SQL question, some system design concepts, and a question on idempotency.

Round 3: This round was again mostly resume-based, along with some behavioral questions.

Round 4 - Director Round: The director asked me a sales-related HLD/system design question. I was able to answer only about half of the question and couldn't complete the entire design. There were also some behavioral questions.

It has now been around 5 days since my interviews, and I haven't received any update from HR.

I'm wondering:

  1. Should I consider the incomplete answer in the Director round as a likely rejection?
  2. Is there still a chance of getting selected if the other rounds went well?
  3. How long does Adobe usually take to share the final result after an onsite/hiring drive?
  4. Has anyone recently interviewed for Adobe CS1 in Bangalore and can share their experience with the result timeline?

Update: I checked with the recruiter and the feedback for the first 3 rounds was positive. However, Adobe went into a hiring freeze, so the process is currently on hold.
