Work with some of the smartest and best engineers in the field, and one of the most competent senior management in terms of technology.
Management can be personality-driven and chaotic. There is practically zero support for career development – basically, sink or swim. There's too much of a churn and burn mentality with regards to staff retention.
How you treat people who have devoted a substantial amount of time at Apple (say, 5+ years) can strongly affect whether Apple is viewed as a long-term career option or a nice highlight on the resume.
Team-specific interview process. This team focused on OOP principles. The phone screen involved OOP with a bit of system design. The onsite included another OOP section and a peculiar tree/node question where the task was to serialize and deserializ
Honestly, pretty damn easy, lol. I'm going to try Google next. This was genuinely so simple, I'm amazed a FAANG company would do this. Just practice 300 LeetCode questions and you'll be set!
It was good, tough, and long. 1. Prescreen interview with overall questions to estimate my technology knowledge and experience. It took a 15-minute talk. 2. Test task: write a project. It took 2 hours. 3. Tech interview: 3 sessions, 1 hour each.
