I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Apple (Austin, TX) in May 2022
Interview
Very long, detailed interview process. I went through a screening first, then a team introduction, followed by two technical interviews which both went through things such as test plans, mechanical part design, tolerance stacks, and failure analysis. It was difficult, prior design experience from an internship will be helpful.
