I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in Mar 2009
Interview
Apple is an exciting company to work for. There were close to 14 interviews. The staffing person was great, with incredible follow-up and detailed communication. Understanding the Apple Culture is a big plus. There are many employees who grew up at Apple thus it is important to have influencing skills and energy.

The interviewer was unprepared, showed up late, and acted very informally. They had no idea who they were interviewing and had not read my resume. Only want to hear what they/he/she wanted to hear, and it felt like they were just had a bad day.
Met with the recruiter and the hiring manager but unfortunately I was not able to get past that round. Recruiter did say they will try to reach out again in the future so crossing my fingers I get another chance.
I had 5 interviews, these were with the recruiter, my line manager, line manager's peer, senior leader, then finally my manager's manager. In my experience, the interviews were mostly pretty simple.
