I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Apple (Sunnyvale, CA) in May 2016
Interview
I was contacted by multiple teams at the same time, going over 7 phone screens and 2 onsite. I turned down some more phone screens after I got an offer from one of the teams. The interviewers are really different from person to person, some are polite and professional while others are arrogant and inexperienced, not sure how to formulate a question properly.
Took offer from another company as the manager and the team are more sincere and friendly.

Question 1
A lot of data structures, dynamic programming, math and statistics questions.
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.
The interview was easy, we talked about technical stuff in-depth: os, drivers. If they think you know something, they would ask you till they find where your knowledge ends. So be ready
