One good Apple recruiter reached out to me, but then I got passed around a bit to find a suitable role. Eventually had a great screening call with an engineer - then the recruiter ghosted me. Eventually I reached out to another Apple recruiter who confirmed that I actually passed and should do a full panel interview next. Did the video conference full day interview gauntlet. Two of the interviews were great - one around past experiences and behavior, the other a relevant coding challenge. The rest were bad, with interviewers that seemed dismissive or asking questions that were not job-related. Final behavior interviewer kept repeating the same question in multiple versions trying to gain psychological insight into how solving a difficult work challenge changed me as a person.

Talked to recruiter over email. Was then invited to talk to the hiring manager which went well. Then proceeded to a technical screen where I was asked a lot of graphics knowledge based questions.
