Just as normal. They gave you a task and you only have several minutes to give your answers. It's important for you to prepare everything in advance and be familarized with writing codes and debugging.
Interview process was good, though it was relatively hard compared to other companies. Waited for months for a decision, eventually withdrew from the process. . . . . . . .
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Apple in Oct 2021
Interview
I was setup for failure from the very start. The recruiter didn't mention that it would be swift specific interview so I spent days prepping with LC and system design, only to get hit with swift-ui specific questions. The interviewers were mad at me for bothering them on a Friday afternoon. Their condescending tone haunts me every time I close my eyes. I got berated for not knowing stuff that I didn't get a chance to prep for. All of this could have been avoided with some clear communication from the recruiter/team about what they were expecting from me during the interview. For the sake of my mental health, if this is the tone of an Apple SWE Intern interview, I will stay away from this company for the foreseeable future.
