I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Apple (Sunnyvale, CA) in May 2018
Interview
I had 7 different interviews over a span of about 2 months. After connecting with an employee on LinkedIn, I was emailed by a recruiter to schedule a 15 minute screening FaceTime interview. The interview basically revolved around my previous experience that was mentioned on my resume and why I wanted to join Apple. Then I was invited to meet with a Senior PM from the specific team they were considering me for. Shortly after, I was invited to interview at Apple HQ in California, which consisted of 4 one-hour interviews with different team members all in one day. I then had one more interview with a Senior PM the following week. That final interview required a lot of PM knowledge. I received the verbal offer shortly after.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked about different project management frameworks and gave some problem solving/analytical cases, etc. Questions with Apple are solely based on your own experience and knowledge. Apple really wants to see how you will add value to the company holistically.

Interview
Reached out by HR for initial screening by HM. Interviewed with HM for 30 mins. Brief intro followed by questions on background & the work I have done and the product I have launched. Career trajectory
Best interview process I had in years. Very professional and went all the way to the last round. Disappointed I didn't get an offer but it was a great experience.
Behavioral interviews and case question at the end testing storytelling, the final presentation can be on any topic it’s very Apple. People are very kind and it’s culture driven not typical case questions.
