Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). O processo levou 3 meses. Fui entrevistado pela Apple (Cupertino, CA) em mai. de 2022
Entrevista
Initial phone call with the recruiter, then a 45 minute initial screening with a manager. Was asked about my experience. Not many technical questions. Was contacted by the recruiter a week later and given a design challenge. Had 2 weeks to complete the design challenge. After I submitted, I was scheduled for an onsite with 6 people, 45 minutes each and the recruiter for 30 minutes. Then presented my design challenge for an hour with the team of engineers where they asked design decisions. I was given 5 minutes at the end of each interview to ask questions. After, recruiter reached out telling me the team wanted to bring me on board, then GHOSTED. The interviewers were friendly but the process is arduous and leaves a super bad taste to not have the courtesy to follow up after I spent so much time interviewing. The process was also SUPER long and the design challenge took 30+ hours to complete. Crazy how much time commitment they expect. The entire process from the initial contact with the recruiter has been 3 months.

i had my interview today and was asked the same question. also similarly, the interviewer had no sense of humor. it was not a enjoyable experience because i think i gave like 3-4 different ways of making a cantilever, but i was asked "what else?" like 10 times for the cantilever problem alone. i also have 7 years of work experience, but there was 0 question asked about it.

Pergunta 1
What causes corrosion, and how do you design to mitigate it?
The interview went well overall. The interviewer opened with a discussion about a project I'm proud of, then a beam scenario question that covered structural and load analysis, stress and deflection, and material selection — testing my ability to connect first-principles thinking across the full problem space.

Interview with hiring manager then virtual onsite. They ask you general mechanical engineering questions as well as questions dependent on type of team and skills they are looking for. Not bad overall just brush up on basic beam deflection, GD&T, Design analysis etc.
