I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Hertzlija) in Sep 2024
Interview
Bluetooth connectivity team - interviewers were nice as they are always asked to. A few minutes about the team, the position and a little about my self.
Was asked to describe a project I worked on, and what was my part in it.
Then 2 technical questions, one stated below, the 2nd is very custom to them, but not that hard.

Question 1
Given string, return it without whitespaces.
Follow-up: Do it in-place.
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.
6 rounds. 1 Technical Screening. Then onsite loop consisted of 4 rounds of behavioral, 2 technicals, and 1 sys design. Had an additional Hiring Manager round since I was borderline.
