      Systems Test Engineer Interview

      Oct 30, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Culver City, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Apple (Culver City, CA) in Aug 2017

      Interview

      Apple recruiter contacted me awhile after applying. Usual screening order of HR->Technical with hiring manager->On-site multi-panel interview. Two follow-up phone interviews not including communications with HR. Interview process failed to give relevant technical evaluations on skills important to the role. It was for audio/acoustics testing but there were no questions specific to that area of knowledge; a lot more coding and behavioral questions than anything else. Expect boilerplate interview questions and a lack of appropriate technical questions. They don't state it explicitly, but culture fit is clearly a bigger concern than technical ability.
