Contacted recruiter via LinkedIn who then put me in touch with another recruiter who arranged a phone interview with a hiring manager. Conducted a phone interview in which I thought I conducted extremely poorly, but after a week and half I was sent a design challenge problem to complete over the next two weeks. The challenge required completing a design and describing how you got to your solution which was then documented and sent as a PowerPoint presentation. After several weeks passed received a message that I would be brought in for an in person interview which was going to possibly be two days long. The second day contingent on the first. The first day was 8 hours long with at least 8 scheduled individuals. Unfortunately though Apple was extremely unorganized and only 4 showed during the day. I was even left forgotten after the last scheduled interviewer never showed. I finally decided to leave once no one came to find me after an hour passed beyond that. Two hours later I received a call from the hiring manager stating he had decided to pass on my application due to a lack of experience in a particular field, that he also stated he knew I had no experience in from the start all the back from the phone interview. No apologies for wasting 2 months of my time for something I had zero control over. The experience was interesting, challenging, and a very angering experience.

Recruiter found me on LinkedIn. I got a first round interview over call. They asked me some basic questions on manufacturing processes, my experience, and what skills I honed over the years. Overall a friendly interviewer
