Colloquio
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.

Domanda 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.
The interview went well overall. The interviewer opened with a discussion about a project I'm proud of, then a beam scenario question that covered structural and load analysis, stress and deflection, and material selection — testing my ability to connect first-principles thinking across the full problem space.

Colloquio
Interview with hiring manager then virtual onsite. They ask you general mechanical engineering questions as well as questions dependent on type of team and skills they are looking for. Not bad overall just brush up on basic beam deflection, GD&T, Design analysis etc.
They gave me a take home tolerance analysis worksheet. It was essentially a tolerance stack up for one of their products and felt fairly straight forward. Thought I answered it well but ultimately they decided to move forward with other candidates.
