I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Apple (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2024
Interview
Very personalize and detailed. Recruiter was easy to relate to listened intently to my answer with very specific follow up questions. I appreciate the recruiter taking time to tell their story, Apple’s focuses and dynamic to make sure it was a good fit for both is us.

Question 1
What was the last time you received feedback and what did you do with the feedback?
I applied online. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA)
Interview
The interviewer was unprepared, showed up late, and acted very informally. They had no idea who they were interviewing and had not read my resume. Only want to hear what they/he/she wanted to hear, and it felt like they were just had a bad day.
Met with the recruiter and the hiring manager but unfortunately I was not able to get past that round. Recruiter did say they will try to reach out again in the future so crossing my fingers I get another chance.
I had 5 interviews, these were with the recruiter, my line manager, line manager's peer, senior leader, then finally my manager's manager. In my experience, the interviews were mostly pretty simple.
