Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 7 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Apple en ago 2008
Entrevista
I received initial communication by email from a recruiter that a hiring manager would like to set up a time to talk. I had 2 phone interviews, and then flew out for 12 in person interviews (members of the team and management chain). Everything went really well. The people were really nice and it was great talking with them. The logistics were all handled well. I was basically told I had the job. Unfortunately, a few days after I was told there was a hiring freeze. The process dragged on for months. 2 more phone interviews, followed by 2 months wait, and another 2 phone interviews which were the last. Eventually, I was told they would not move forward. Further inquiry explained they were unable to obtain a job requisition.

Around 2 months after I submitted my resume for Apple software engineer position, I got a call from the hiring manager. He asked me what was the good day for the interview. It took half day for meeting 5 people. It was long hour interview for me. Each interviewer spent ~ 30 minutes and asked ~ 4 questions. Each interviewer asked questions in the different areas.
6 rounds. 1 Technical Screening. Then onsite loop consisted of 4 rounds of behavioral, 2 technicals, and 1 sys design. Had an additional Hiring Manager round since I was borderline.
