3 interviews total: 1 interview with recruiting, 1 with hiring manager, 1 with senior engineers Interviews were each scheduled 30 minutes long, but always schedule time for an hour each.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Personality questions, project management questions, what data tools you use and how you report
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in May 2022
Interview
I have had several interviews with them and in general I didn't have a good experience with Apple. Here are the reasons:
- sometimes their recruiters ghost you. They don't even let you know how you did after the interview.
- most interviewers were not professional and in some cases disrespectful(asking irrelative questions, late on the interview)
- looks like they many of them need training for interviewing people.
- In many cases there is an offer already on that position and they just want to have an interview so they can apply for somebody's greencard that is already working there or maybe to hire someone internally.
- I can ask hundreds of questions related to their positions such that they can't answer, it shouldnt be about asking complicated technical questions, many of their hiring managers still don't know that
- several times they were late on the interviews , once one HM hung up the call to answer another call! Once somebody contacted while he was on his way home!
- in case you face such things make sure you let them know about what they are doing wrong because I feel like many people apply to these large companies and that's why they always think they can easily find someone else and maybe that's why they behave like that.
-Keep in mind that although they invite you to the interview they might just want to do that to hire someone else and you are just being played so don't expect much from them and don't wait for the results much

Question 1
some basic questions + irrelative questions that you never gonna face at work: impulse response of an RC circuit!
I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Apple (Cork) in Aug 2019
Interview
The interview process and the interviewers were brilliant. I really can't appraise how the team members were welcoming and respectful towards me throughout few test interviews I had with them.
Although interviewers were good, the communication from the HR could have been better especially when they ghost you after the interview and there's no getting information whether the interview went well or whether they decided to move on. Even the generic automated rejection email would have been nice.
