Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Sacramento, CA (took a day)

I got the opportunity to Interview with Apple through my college's career center. The interview lasted for 30 min. The interviewer asked me only two questions - tell me about yourself and why apple. Then I told me to ask questions. Rest of the interview, I had to really ask questions and drive the whole conversation.
I came to know that this fits with their culture, where you have work in ambiguity and there is no one to help around.
I was not given an offfer

Received and Declined Offer

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Cupertino, CA (took 6 weeks)

The position was a very appealing one and I was generally impressed with all of the Apple personnel with whom I met (17 1:1 interviews by the time I was done). It would have involved a very thick "dotted line" to my internal clients and I got a pretty good feel for most of them and looked forward to working with them. Despite the length of the process, the logistics of the phone interviews, the travel for the day in Cupertino and the in-person interviews generally went well. Questions were not exceptionally challenging, centering mostly on experience in vendor negotiations and client relationships.

Answer Question

Reason for Declining

Although the position itself would be engaging on a number of levels, the compensation offered, even with some significant negotiation, was not adequate, after adjusting for the cost of living in the Bay Area.
