I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2018
Interview
Two phone interviews and mostly technical questions, nothing likes "why do you want to work at Apple". Interviewers were also my supervisors after that. I didn't know what kind of project I am going to work on at the time of the interview, but eventually I realized that they asked very specific questions depending on two main factors: 1) requirements of the project 2) expertise of the interviewer.
