O processo levou 1 dia. Fui entrevistado pela Apple (Cupertino, CA) em jun. de 2011
Entrevista
contacted via LinkedIn. two semi technical phone screens followed. travel was required and arranged very promptly -- flexibility and decent arrangements. next day interview consisted of a 8 1:1s with potential peers and management. it lasted about 7 hours and included lunch at the main cafeteria. really know your resume, which is where most technical questions originated from. obsessive brand loyalty is par for the course and is why you're interviewing with them.
overall experience was positive and a good barometer of where you are on the totem pole.
Somewhat difficult, but everyone was extremely nice . I recommend practicing code and a couple behavioral questions. I asked 2 questions both times and they were impressed like that as well. Explaining my thought process out loud seemed to go well.
The guidance provided was very thorough, and I was able to follow the instructions for the interview process without any issues. By taking the time to prepare yourself properly, you should have no trouble navigating the interview and completing it successfully. The process is clear, and with the right preparation, you can approach it with confidence.
I had an initial phone interview for an hour. They asked about previous experience and then interleaved them with some technical questions. Finally, they ask the main interview questions toward the end.
