A friend submitted my name to Apple HR. The HR person emailed me to set up the first phone interview with a manager. The first one went well, and the HR person then set up a second phone interview with another manager and said it would take 45 minutes for a technical assessment. The second one also went well, but I haven't heard anything from Apple yet (after one day).

They verified my work at the last company and fired questions focusing on problem-solving. They had follow-up questions to try to understand more about what I was doing in my last job.

The second manager made sure I understood the job duties and requirements, and what I would do if hired.
