I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Apple in Feb 2013
Interview
Submitted my resume at a college career fair. They asked some interesting questions at the fair, sort of like puzzles. A few days later I got an email asking to set up a phone interview. This was about half an hour long. He started out by asking a bunch of questions about my background and details about projects I have done, and what fields (within EE) I was interested in. He then, at the end, told me what the group did. My focus was more IC design, but at the end he told me it was a board design position, which did not make me seem like the best fit.
