I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Apple (Austin, TX) in Aug 2023
Interview
Interviewer started to speak about the team they are hiring for and explained what they are wanting to build as a team. He did not ask me a single question about my experience and stuff. He made me feel like it is one way interaction. Although at the end of his explanation he asked if I have any questions. Later, he asked me 2 basic Java syntactical questions and 1 logic question. The 2 java questions were like basic java questions and involved concepts related to StringBuffer() and Inheritance. Other logical question was related to proability. There are 50 Red balls and 50 Green Balls and you have 2 buckets to put the ball. What is the highest probaility of getting a green ball from 2 buckets?
Used Webex for this call.

that have to be made in the other domains. There is someone in the project team who has to
understand all those things as one in full context, and this in
