I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Berkeley, CA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Online then you get an email months later. It took a long time to get mine. Then you get invited to a group interview. You meet with about 20 others. And 20 apple employees who are over enthuiastic. It's a retail job with low pay. The questions are silly and you don't really have a chance to stand out. You get picked on luck. Try not to be too good for the interview. They want nerdy types. If you intimidate them it won't go well.
It’s a very long process so have patience. Sometimes they will give you feedback but if you are external you will just receive a turn down email. Keep applying. Apple says it’s not a NO. It’s a not now and that’s very true.
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.
