I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Apple in Jan 2012
Interview
after going to apple campus for "hiring event" and talked to few managers on same day, i was called for on-site 4 hour interview a month later. i did well in interview. since that day (been over 6 weeks) i haven't heard from any of the 4 apple contacts. despite several emails and voice mails, no one contacted me back. how rude is that??
Around 2 months after I submitted my resume for Apple software engineer position, I got a call from the hiring manager. He asked me what was the good day for the interview. It took half day for meeting 5 people. It was long hour interview for me. Each interviewer spent ~ 30 minutes and asked ~ 4 questions. Each interviewer asked questions in the different areas.
6 rounds. 1 Technical Screening. Then onsite loop consisted of 4 rounds of behavioral, 2 technicals, and 1 sys design. Had an additional Hiring Manager round since I was borderline.
