Difficult Interview – Overall Neutral Experience – No – Sat, 4 Oct 2014
Interviewed Feb 2014 in Austin, TX(took 6 months)
I applied for a position with apple austin back in january of 2014. they contacted me in Feb and then sometime in march I had my first actual interview with someone about the job (the previous contacts were the vetting phone conversations - 2 of those) In all I had 14 interviews over a 6 month period. I submitted portfolio samples, code samples, and style samples. In the end I didn't get the job and it might have been because of the frustration that I was feeling in the last few weeks before the decision . It came down to two of us and they picked the other person. But I think that 6 months is WAY too long to decide a job position. for the main reason that there were 3 or 4 other positions that came along at Apple during this process that I applied for but was passed over because they had me listed 'In Process' for the other job. 2 of the other jobs were almost exactly the same position as the one that I was applying for.
