I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2017
Interview
I met some Apple recruiters at an event at my school, then got an email a couple of weeks later to schedule a phone interview. The interview was very technical and asked very specific questions about cantilevers and beams and such. There were very few personal/behavioral questions.
