I applied through college or university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Apple
Interview
1 onsite at school, then 14 interviews onsite. Really put me through my paces, in everything from optimization all the way to doing heat transfer and dynamics problems as well as more generic questions. It was pretty fun! Definitely more exciting than some of the more generic and silly questions that we've been talking about.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Apple in Feb 2015
Interview
Apple was at my school collecting resumes and recruiting for internship interviews, so I submitted my resume, gave my pitch, and was asked to interview later that day. I was interviewed by a current product design engineer, and we briefly went over my resume. I had a chance to ask him questions about the company as well. It was ~30 minutes long.

They showed a spec sheet (manufacturing/tolerance sheet) and asked me a few questions about tolerancing.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA)
Interview
I've dealt with three HR people from Apple and two were very forgetful and unknowledgable and were unprofessional at times and I paid for it. The good one prepared you as to who you were going to meet and did what they said they were going to do. Kept communication and time commitments.

Question 1
Depends on the group but I observed several people asking other people for a question, brain teaser, to ask an interviewee. It was to gather knowledge it was just something to do to look like they prepared. They really didn't care, like their opinion didn't matter anyway. It was obnoxious.
