I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
Was a 45 min Phone screen interview, referred by a current employee who's in the same group. Interview was scheduled almost right after they received my resume. There were 3 interviewers, and they asked lots of questions related to my resume and previous experiences, but not limited to. Around a week later, I received a reject email from the hiring manager.
