Senior Staff Engineer Interview Experience - Cupertino, California
Process
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day.
I interviewed with Apple twice, in 2019 and 2022, for an EDA position. The phone interviews focused on my area of expertise: physical verification (DRC/LVS/PERC) and parasitic extraction (StarRC/XRC). They went smoothly, and the on-site rounds with five to six interviewers also went well. However, the offer was below my expectations, so I declined.
