I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in Jul 2015
Interview
This was by far the worst interview process I had ever experienced. I applied online and was contacted by a recruiter for a specific role. She never contacted me back to set up a time but later that week an engineer called me and was under the impression our interview was confirmed for that time. I was completely unprepared and so I told him that the recruiter hadn't set up a time but he gave me the impression that once it was confirmed with him he couldnt reschedule so it was either then or never. I went through the interview but wasn't ready and did not perform very well not surprisingly.
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
