Overall terrible experience. Was mis-scheduled back to back in a different time zone than the interviewer by the same coordinator. When asked about interviewing for a certain level, was told "it was a stretch", despite having interviews for the same level at F, G, the other A, and U (which are all more senior according to levels.fyi).
For the phone interview, was asked 2 easy LeetCode questions. When solving question 1, the interviewer could not be convinced that I had the optimal solution despite prolonged discussions about the runtime and space complexity. They instead proposed a solution that had the same runtime but used more space. The discussion eventually lead to an attitude on the interviewer's side of "hey let's just move on." (Yes, I double checked the question on LeetCode following the interview to make sure I didn't accidentally miss anything. I was indeed correct about the runtime and space complexity of the approaches that were considered).

Around 2 months after I submitted my resume for Apple software engineer position, I got a call from the hiring manager. He asked me what was the good day for the interview. It took half day for meeting 5 people. It was long hour interview for me. Each interviewer spent ~ 30 minutes and asked ~ 4 questions. Each interviewer asked questions in the different areas.
The interview was easy, we talked about technical stuff in-depth: os, drivers. If they think you know something, they would ask you till they find where your knowledge ends. So be ready
