Difficult Interview – Overall Positive Experience – No – Tue, 5 Apr 2016
Interviewed Apr 2016(took 14 days)
I got an e-mail asking me to schedule a phone interview, had the interview which was very straight forward and lasted for about 10 minutes. There were no strange questions being asked on the phone. I directly afterwards got invited to a hiring event at a local Apple Store. We were around 15 people coming in that morning, after signing our papers and greeting everybody the three people started telling us about Apple and the store itself. We were later divided into three groups getting a case to discuss and present in 30 seconds. After that we were divided in three new groups and passed around the iPad with questions as described in other posts on here.
I rate this interview difficult, but in a positive way. For me it was very challenging to get rejected after the event since they did not ask you a lot of questions which simply meant that you were rejected because you have the "wrong" personality. It was also tough having the people hosting the event taking notes and examining your behaviour at all times during the two hours the event lasted. I also did not receive any type of feedback even after asking.
