Pretty quick, 16 stages but mostly leetcode stuff and a bit of system design. Overall they were friendly but I didn't get the role... not sure why. I might have said something offensive to one of the interviewers.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (San Diego, CA) in Jul 2025
Interview
Manager meet and greet, technical screen panel. Nothing crazy two OOP design style questions. One pretty easy leet code style question solved with a hash table. Ton of behavioral questions sprinkled in between. Whole process took 4 weeks from recruiter contact to final decision.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Apple
Interview
Preliminary interviews followed by technical programming take-home assignment with presentation to Apple engineers on relevant teams via video call over the course of a couple of weeks. Last interview would have been on-site but I did not hear back.
