Applied online.
Received an email just a week later from a recruiter who scheduled a time for the interview over the phone.
You are interviewed with one or two people.
Questions
They ask about your previous jobs, the responsibilities you held, and the roles you played. They typically review 2-4 of your previous jobs to understand your background.
For the specific Escalation Engineer role I applied for, which dealt with iTunes, they wanted to know my knowledge of the software. They inquired about issues I'd encountered with iTunes and my recommendations for improvement.
They presented a scenario: If an app developer's app, which should be listed #1, is instead listed at #200, how would you troubleshoot and determine the reason?
