I've totally 7 yoe and cleared interviews for Document Cloud BU at Adobe Bangalore. Recruiter says I can be given only CS-1 for my experience. On LinkedIn, I see many people with lesser experience for CS-2. I have two follow-up questions. 1. Should I push my recruiter for CS-2? 2. If I get stuck at CS-1 unfortunately, how long might it take for me to get promoted to CS-2? Tc - 35L
Don't take CS1. I have 7 yoe too and I became cs-2 2 years back, when I had 5 years of experience. At Adobe, depending on the team, promotions can be slow, so you might be stuck at CS1 for a couple of years.
Is this applicable for external hires too? Or getting to CS-2 sooner is just an internal promotion thing?
Doubt it's an internal thing. I know of 2-3 people who had same experience years as me and were hired at cs-2 before my promotion. It all depends on how good your interviews went and how much room you have for negotiation. Get other offers and leverage them to negotiate.
Don't take cs1, push for cs2.

Promotions are generally given based on your visibility in the team and org, so it takes generally 2 years to build that.
Cs1/2 are hella dated. Just get the creative cloud subscription.
How outdated is document cloud?
Lol OP didn’t get it
Thanks for your help, guys. Talked to recruiter for pushing to CS-2. She says it's the hiring manager that decided my position and she'll setup a call with him for discussing this. Let's see what happens. 🤞
Hey, any update on final level or TC offered
My final offer was (30+pf+gratuity) + 2JB + (75k USD/4 years). This was for CS1. Hiring manager sounded rude when I asked for CS2. He wasn't ready to listen to anything I said. His point was to join the company and prove my worth for CS2. I don't wanna work with a manager with such impolite attitude. So I rejected the offer.
