🏆 How landed on the interview?

I had applied to Adobe several times in the past with no response. But this time, the job description closely aligned with my past work, and I finally received a callback

Round 1: Hiring Manager/Culture Fit

Hard1 hr

Started with a quick intro and a puzzle (I solved it after some time)
Was then asked to prove the solution theoretically, which didn’t go perfectly
Followed by a lot of behavioral questions — this round felt average to me

Round 2: Frontend System Design

Moderate1 hr

This was more of a discussion round than a classic system design
Talked about performance optimization, accessibility, build tools, and security
Also answered some behavioral questions — this round felt very relevant to real work

Round 3: JavaScript/Framework

Moderate1 hr

I was asked to create a polyfill for Promise (then, catch, finally)
In the last 20 minutes, I had to take a JSON and create a basic bar chart(Initially asked to create it with canvas, but i mentioned i don't have much idea so tried it with plain JS and HTML and CSS)
I was well-prepared, finished most of it, and the interviewer seemed happy

Round 4: Frontend Fundamentals

Moderate1 hr

Covered JavaScript basics, prototypes, and some tricky output questions
Also got a few CSS and HTML questions
I don’t remember all the details, but overall, the round went well

Final Thoughts

No Offer – I didn’t hear back from the team even after follow-ups. While disappointing, I still appreciate the learning and insights I gained from the experience. Even though I didn’t make it through, I’m really glad I went through this process. Each round helped me understand where I stand and what to improve.
