  • I have absoloutely loved my placement year at Adobe, and I would love to be considered for another role here on a graduate scheme. I have enjoyed the job, networking with the different departments, as well as my team, and the overall company culture.

  • 8. What advice would you give to others applying to Adobe
  • To be yourself and to make sure the role you are applying for is what you would like a career in, or that you are interested in exploring further. I did a sales role as I wanted to kickstart my sales career, and I have loved every second of it, as well as networking with other departments in the business. I think that any role at Adobe is enjoyable and fun, and you shouldn't think twice about applying.
