I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at adidas (Estambul) in Jul 2022
Interview
the first interview is quite the classical one; however you should explain why you should be a good fit even during the first interview because at the second interview a very detailed case study is asked you to do.
In my case it was an hypotetical new shoe release where I had to proposed a budget based on the max allowed expenditure; I prepared a communication, marketing, event and in-store activation plan because adidas also does a lot of in-store experience based marketing plan.
I did not get the post because my salary excpectation was higher than the offered budget

Interview
I applied through the company website, and was invited to a video webcam interview about 2 weeks later. The interview consisted of four pre-recorded questions, each gives you 20 seconds to prepare an answer, followed by a minute to share an answer.
The four fairly basic behavioral questions were:
Why Adidas and what is your affiliation with basketball?
Tell us about a time you worked with executive-level employees.
Tell us about a personal achievement you are most proud of.
Tell us about a time when you had to multi-task between several projects.
3 weeks later I got an email, only after sending a follow-up email to adidas HR, telling me they're pursuing other candidates.
