The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in Jun 2009
Interview
Initially had a phone interview and then in person interview - I met 10 people including the recruiter. The questions were both technical and non-technical. The interview lasted for about 6 hours. The question that I found difficult was " Where do you see yourself in 5 years and how will this job help you acheive that goal?"

Question 1
Where do you see yourself in 5 years and how will this job help you reach that goal?
First starts with a recruiter call
Then to a EPM peer, where you have a conversation on background and standard questions as well as a prioritization question.
Then if you pass, then you would move onto a loop with 5 other stakeholders.
I applied online. I interviewed at Apple (Austin, TX) in Jan 2026
Interview
Behavior based questions and based on background. No technically complex questions. But need to be technically knowledgeable and have the relevant experience in both engineering and program management. Pretty standard questions asked from all interviewers. Recruiter screen, HM call, panel with presentation

The overall interview process is long. It starts with general recruiter call followed by 2-3 one on one calls with hiring manager and recruiting teams, followed by a technical presentation and a day of panel interviews.
