Engineering Interview Experience - Cupertino, California

June 1, 2011
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Contacted via LinkedIn. Two semi-technical phone screens followed. Travel was required and arranged very promptly, showing flexibility and decent arrangements. The next day's interview consisted of eight 1:1s with potential peers and management. It lasted about 7 hours and included lunch at the main cafeteria. Really know your resume, which is where most technical questions originated. Obsessive brand loyalty is par for the course and is why you're interviewing with them.

Overall experience was positive and a good barometer of where you are on the totem pole.
