I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (New York, NY) in Feb 2012
Interview
casual and very relaxed. Basic logical questions. Was easy. Tech questions and to suggest solutions based on logic rather than correct answers. They gave lots of time and were relaxed.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Fibonacci series. Logical questions on arriving at a non relevant answer. Puzzles and flow of logic were integral part of the questions. Most of the questions were not related to tech field
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.
