I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Apple (Boston, MA) in May 2012
Interview
It was intense but very fair. Sometimes their were 3 people asking a question at the same time so I showed leadership by organizing the process for them. On my first interview I told the recruiter I was not interested as the manager seemed angry. They appreciated the feedback and asked that I return. I received an apology from the first interviewing manager who said he in fact had some personal issues and did not realize how much it impacted him.
