Engineer In Charge Interview Experience - Cupertino, California
Process
The recruiter found me on LinkedIn.
We talked for half an hour, and then he decided that he would present my resume to the hiring manager.
He called back a week later with some follow-up questions that made it clear he was looking for someone with a deeper level of patent acquisition/innovation record.
He called back a couple of days later to let me know that it wasn't a fit (not a surprise), but that my resume would be circulated among other Apple recruiters.
I haven't called him back, nor has anyone from Apple called me.
I wasn't excited about Apple (not sour grapes), and I've moved on to another position.
The recruiter was always professional and helpful.
