Interviewed Feb 2009 in Tampa, FL (took a day)
Looking for the right answers. Show determination in the company, show that it isn't just a job, but a part of your lifestyle. Be quick with answers. And if you don't know, then don't BS them. Flat at tell them, but remind them that you would be on your way to find the right answer if they so ever pleased.

Interviewed May 2010 in Fort Lauderdale, FL (took 3 weeks)
Came in 15 minutes early, the guy was really nice- dressed in shorts and a tee shirt. I was a fool dressed in a shirt and tie, after doing some home work I found that dressing casual is what is best. So when I went for the second interview dressed in a nice shirt and some jeans I got better looks (I guess for my individual style vs the corporate norm). Questions were fairly standard, process took 15 minutes.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took a day)
I applied online and sent in my resume and received a call a few weeks later to schedule an interview. The interview was 1:1 and for the most part the questions were mostly technical. Mostly about products and how to fix issues that costumers might have.

the hiring process was quite good. quick. they knew who they wanted, the personality, the background. education was not that important. they wanted somebody who understands their culture. wouldn't do it for short-term. was committed to putting lengthy hours.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in San Diego, CA (took a day)
We met and went out of the store to a bench where the manager asked me some questions about myself. We talked for a bit then he started asking me about sales and how I would go about making a sale and how much I knew about the store and the products.

First, they contact you via email to tell you to go to a group meeting.
At the meeting, you are also asked to fill out a multipage form which they use to determine questions to ask the group (such as what was the most interesting experience they had in an Apple Store).
Then, they do a mass interview of about 20 people and ask them about their attitudes, knowledge, and psychological makeup.
Once that process is finished (about 3 hours), they tell you they will contact you later.
Then, they call you to tell you they would like a one-on-one meeting, at which they schedule several interviews at the same time, in the same room.
They then proceed to spend about an hour with you to ask you even more personal questions, and questions related to your resume.

Interviewed Feb 2009 (took a day)
First we had to fill out a questionnaire on general information about Apple products and computers.
Then, about 35 of us were seated in a room and asked to tell the recruiters why we think we would make a good employee for Apple and a fun fact about ourselves.
Finally we had to do a roleplay scenario where once we were a customer and then an employee.
