Process
It was pretty good. The hiring manager and engineers on the team were all very nice. The interview wasn't too difficult, mainly focusing on LeetCode problems and the iOS projects I worked on.

Software Engineer Intern • Former Employee
Cupertino, California, United States
February 18, 2023
Pros: Good food. People on the team were amazing, although that could vary depending on your team.
Lots of intern events in Cupertino to meet other interns and executives.
Many employees are Apple fans, which is fun, sort of like cheering on a sports team?
Cons: Very secretive, and it doesn’t seem like outside-the-box thinking is respected much. But maybe that’s just 'cause I was an intern.
Product releases were fun, as you found out what you were unknowingly working on.
