I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Apple in Apr 2026
Interview
2 stage process all done over Webex. 1st round was a group interview consisting of two managers and six total candidates. 2nd round with the Store Leader. I received a verbal offer two days later over the phone, and the rest was processed via email and text.
It’s a very long process so have patience. Sometimes they will give you feedback but if you are external you will just receive a turn down email. Keep applying. Apple says it’s not a NO. It’s a not now and that’s very true.
Famously competitive as always, my odds were better since I kept updating my resume whenever I was on the job search. They reached out to me first by email, I completed an application, and then had three rounds of interviews in total.
