I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in Jan 2016
Interview
I submitted my resume at a hackathon. About a month after, I was contacted by the recruiter and one cool team wanted to interview me for a position in their team. I had two phone interviews both with the manager of the team. He was extremely nice and very patient. After the second interview, I got an offer about a week after. The interview process was very smooth and overall a great experience. Everyone is very friendly.
