J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Apple (Cupertino, CA) en mars 2018
Entretien
Sent my portfolio thru campus recuiters and get several interviews from different teams. Most of the first round is for screening, some of HRs asked brainteaser questions or behavioral/technical questions but they were very easy to answer, and it seemed that HRs expected more from creativity rather than correct answer.
Then I went for design challenge, very thorough analysis of the product I designed.
Then onsite, haven't finished yet .
Questions d'entretien [3]
Question 1
there's a room with lots of balloons filled with He, how to break them all. Name as much methos as possible
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.

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.
