I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Apple in Feb 2017
Interview
Got contacted by a manager on Linkedin and quickly have a phone interview setup. Hiring manager is very nice and we had great discussion over phone. My skillset doesn't meet their expectation so the hiring manager told me immediately at the end of the interview that they will not follow up (which is great because a lot of people just never give you feedback afterwards). I asked a lot of questions and he answered all of them very patiently. Overall it's a very good experience
Starts with recruiter screen and asked about last projects I worked in my previous company.
Later met with the director and it was behavioral followed by 6 rounds on the onsite interview.
