Software Development Intern Interview Experience - Cupertino, California
Process
Amazing process. I interviewed for the AI/ML team. I had to describe how Siri worked and how to develop a new product based on how Siri analyzes voice and sounds. I also received a programming interview, but I don't necessarily remember the specific question. I also received a programming interview for another team where I essentially had to create code to analyze log output from an internal system.
