I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (South Bend, IN) in Apr 2012
Interview
Went to Apple Store, watched presentation on the company, did some roleplaying exercises as customer/employee, answered questions in group format. This was an interesting experience, and one of two similar interviews that I did. Soon after this Apple Store opened in the mall. Had a little trouble gaining access, as the interview session was scheduled after the mall closed, but it all worked out well.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is your greatest strength, what is your greatest weakness
The process involved an initial application followed by a screening call with a recruiter. This was followed by one or two interviews with team members, focusing on customer service, problem-solving, and cultural fit. The interviewers asked behavioural questions and scenarios related to handling customers and troubleshooting. Overall, the process was structured, professional, and gave a clear understanding of the role expectations.
Erstes Vorstellungsgespräch - 20 Minuten. Sehr angenehm und professionell. Solange man sich bisschen damit beschäftigt, wird es gut laufen. Man muss sich auf jedenfall selbstbewusst und sozial darstellen. Viel lächeln und aktiv zuhören. Stelle auch deine eigenen Fragen, mach es klar dass du die Website dir angeschaut hast und dass du wirklich interessiert bist. Apple ist es egal was du weißt, sei einfach ehrlich und transparent.

Interview
One group interview as well as a phase 2/3 interview with the store manager and possibly the director (i didn't make it past the second interview) but everything is straightforward and mainly behavior questions.
