Interesting hardware and software systems, but it wasn't for me
Very intelligent people working on industry-leading technology.
Good stock grants.
My projects were secret, so I couldn't find out the details until I accepted the job. I asked if it was product-based or R&D, and they said product-based. But it turned out to be R&D.
Nothing really. Everyone was nice. I just think it's not something I would do again (joining a secret project). Not my thing.

Apple Interview Experiences
SoC Verification Engineer
One technical screen and six rounds of technical interviews. The process went very fast. It took about two weeks from the first screen to the last panel interview, and also one interview with the recruiter.
Data Engineer
Two phone screens that contained behavior questions, past projects, Python, and SQL. Python was LeetCode medium. I was asked a question about BFS. SQL was also LeetCode medium and involved some joins.
Design Verification Engineer
Recruiter reached out and had a normal call. Then scheduled a 45 min screening with hiring manager. The screening call with HM was a horror show. Completely uninterested, was eating his dinner while on call, asked one question, no follow up, no backg
