I applied online. I interviewed at Apple (Austin, TX) in Sep 2025
Interview
the interviewers were responsive and respectful, it includes easy coding questions and behavioral questions. Timeline is one round coding and three round back to back. Overall good experience, but i didn't get the offer.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Montreal, QC) in Nov 2021
Interview
Process started with a hiring manager screen which does not involve any coding, just learn more about your background experience. Then it proceeded with the virtual on-site panel interview consisting of 5 back to back technical 45-min sessions.
Each interview was very technical based on coding and java programming language. Little to none behavioural questions were asked.

Phone screening and coder pad interview. Phone screen went great, the coder pad interview went down hill fast, the lady who was giving the interview was extremely condescending and made me feel super uncomfortable the entire time. Making odd comments about my coding/learning style through out the interview. To end the interview, she literally just hung up the phone and that was the last I heard from them.
