Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 5 giorni. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Apple (Cupertino, CA) nel mese di ott 2010
Colloquio
The phone interview consisted of just questions about my past work experience. Then got called for an on-site interview. The interview lasted 5 hrs with 30 min interviews with 10 people, including one with HR. Most of the questions were about my past experience here as well. Included a lot of drawing on the white board to explain the architecture of software I had worked on. There were some programming questions as well, which were quite simple, like code for fibonacci series and factorial using both recursive and non-recursive methods, counting the number of 1s in a variable, writing code for a circular buffer. Also had questions on OS, like memory management, interrupt handling, preemption etc. I thought I did well, but did not receive an offer.
Write code for generating a factorial/fibonacci for a given number using both recursive and non-recursive methods. Advantages and disadvantages of each method.
Around 2 months after I submitted my resume for Apple software engineer position, I got a call from the hiring manager. He asked me what was the good day for the interview. It took half day for meeting 5 people. It was long hour interview for me. Each interviewer spent ~ 30 minutes and asked ~ 4 questions. Each interviewer asked questions in the different areas.
6 rounds. 1 Technical Screening. Then onsite loop consisted of 4 rounds of behavioral, 2 technicals, and 1 sys design. Had an additional Hiring Manager round since I was borderline.
