I was contacted by a recruiter a couple months after I sent in an application. We set up a time to talk to someone for the Ad Platform team. I did a one hour interview with the beginning portion being behavioral and the last 15 minutes were on a coderpad. The interviewer asked basic questions he could think of at the top of his head and I had to implement them. He then asked some data structure questions. We developed rapport at the end with talking about his life and mine.
My scheduler would reply to me after, but my initial recruiter was out on medical leave after the interview. I was then ghosted by the new recruiter when I reached out to inquire.
I received an email from a recruiter to schedule an interview. I had a 45-minute interview to discuss my profile. There was one leet code easy-medium question. Another question on data structure theory.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (San Diego, CA) in Feb 2024
Interview
It was basically an open ended question on how I would design a mouse to monitor system. No other questions. At the end they asked if I had any other questions.
