Process

The interview wasn't hard; the person was easy to talk to.

Initially, I was asked general questions, such as:

  • Why do you want to work at Apple?
  • What's your favorite Apple product?
  • Describe a situation in which you failed and how you handled it.

Then, I was asked a few questions about Git.

Overall, I thought the interview went fine, but I didn't end up getting the position.
