I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Toronto, ON) in Sep 2022
Interview
The interview process was very unorganized. The recruiter said she would call in the next two days. I Sent a thank you email and finally got a reply 3 weeks later asking for another interview. Why let someone wait 3 weeks before responding to a interview. This is not the first time i have heard this recruiter do this process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
More of a conversation and not any true interview questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Apple (New York, NY)
Interview
The interview process was structured and professional. It started with a brief phone screening where basic questions about experience and leadership style were discussed. After that, I had an in-person interview with a senior manager focused on customer service approach, team management skills, and problem-solving in stressful situations. The atmosphere was calm but slightly formal, and the interviewer paid close attention to real-life examples.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The main question was: “How would you handle a situation where a team member consistently underperforms despite coaching and feedback?”
Quick and effective with lots of time to answer questions. Comfortable setting. Nice air conditioning. Good lighting. Kind people. I need 30 words for a free account. Not there yet. But close.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Apple
Interview
Was told I wasn't "Apple Enough", I answered everything to the best of my ability. They want people who are absolute Apple loyalists. I tried to not fan boy out and play it cool. that was not the correct approach.
