Process
Met on university campus for an on-campus interview.
Was asked various technical questions about previous projects. You would draw a block diagram of your project, and they would test your technical knowledge of various blocks if they found it interesting.
Also asked plenty of technical questions relating to their products.
Felt a little rushed since they were on a time schedule.
Questions
How would you design the original iPod scroll wheel?
