I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in Jun 2016
Interview
The hiring manager contacted me through email. The group described the project they worked on to me, asked me some technical questions and asked me to write a proposal. After reviewing the proposal, they asked more detailed question and tested me technical skills.

Question 1
They describe the project to me and asked me to write a proposal.
Understanding your history and show interest in the prompts. Know the basics and you’ll do fine, understand why you’re there and why you want the job. If you try to BS it you’ll only cheat yourself.
The interview process for the Apple internship was structured and professional. It began with an introduction and a brief overview of the role, followed by questions about my background, projects, and interest in Apple. The interviewer focused on understanding my problem-solving approach, communication skills, and ability to work in a team. Some questions were behavioral, while others were based on my technical knowledge and past experience. Overall, the process felt organized, and the interviewer was respectful and engaging throughout.

Question 1
One question they asked me was: “Tell me about a time you worked on a challenging project and how you handled obstacles during the process.”
Was pretty hard, and the interviewer seemed quite rude. If you know all of your topics thoroughly and can do multiple examples, it might be easier for you. Study about the company and be prepared to ask questions that are thought provoking not simple ones
