Process
Master student - 1 round interview - after the university career fair.
I heard that Apple came to our university because of the career fair. After I submitted my resume, a week later, they sent me an email to schedule the "1vs1 interview". However, they wanted to hire a verification engineer, which did not match my major. So, I didn't get the job offer.
Questions
They try to ask a lot of questions related to the Verilog language.
