Software Quality Engineer Interview Experience - Bengaluru, Karnataka

Process

Mainly 5 rounds, in which 2 are tester rounds and then HR.

Good company, but HR was not professionally skilled.

So, I was contacted by a staffing agency for an interview with Adobe. They told me there would be a total of 5 rounds of interviews, and each round would be an elimination round (3 technical, 2 with manager, and HR).

The most awkward experience I had was that this interview was for experienced people, where on average, people had 5 to 10 years of experience from different reputed companies.

1st unexpected round was a screening round where HR asked to tell him about yourself in the room where 30-40 other people were also present.

After some time, he called around 20 people out of the room and said, "You people might be very good on the technical side, but your communication skill is not good, so you can leave now." (Just like he is interviewing a fresher and checking his communication).

He was giving his feedback to a group of people where some people were serving senior roles and some people were serving lead roles in their organization, and his feedback was that the person's communication is not good, and that also in front of everyone.

I think Adobe is now working as a BPO, that's why they are looking for very good English-speaking people.

And if they only want to check communication, they can do some discussion over the phone and get the idea about communication skills. No need to ask the person to come there and waste their time.
