I've gone through four stages.

The initial phone screen with the internal recruiter was followed by:

• An in-person meeting with the hiring manager.
• Another meeting with the Sales lead and a Platform specialist.
• A final presentation to a panel.

It has now been seven weeks since the last interview, and despite a lot of chasing, I've never heard back.

The whole process took up quite a lot of energy and time, especially preparing the presentation.

While the Search team at Apple was great to deal with at all times, I found it extremely unprofessional for the internal recruiters to have no courtesy to get back to a candidate who has invested so much time in the application.

A lot of competency questions.
