I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Apple in Jan 2009
Interview
They asked a lot of questions as if there was a book somewhere and they selected 6 random questions that seemed to have real purpose other than to see how one thinks on their feet. I didn't really think Apple was going to hire me due to my lack of retail and Apple product experience so I was fairly indifferent to the whole process. Some how I think they took that as confidence... Who knows.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
What groups in high school do you think had it the best or easiest?
Famously competitive as always, my odds were better since I kept updating my resume whenever I was on the job search. They reached out to me first by email, I completed an application, and then had three rounds of interviews in total.
