I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Apple (Singapore) in May 2026
Interview
The recruiter initially reached out regarding a role and indicated that interviews would be scheduled. However, communication throughout the process was slow and required multiple follow-ups from my side to receive updates.
After being told that the recruiter was checking with the hiring team and would keep me posted, I again had to follow up several times before receiving any further information. Eventually, I was informed that the role had been put on hold for a few weeks.
I understand that hiring priorities can change, but more proactive communication and transparency would have made for a much better candidate experience. Candidates invest time and effort into these opportunities, and timely updates, even if the news is not positive, go a long way.
