I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Apple (Waterloo, ON) in Jun 2013
Interview
It started with a group interview. Several other candidates and I were led into a room and sat around a table. An exam booklet was passed out by the interviewer and we were given 30 minutes to complete it. The questions were on various electrical engineering topics and were extremely difficult; I was only able to answer one with confidence. After, the interviewer collected the exam booklets and told us that the exam was intended to be very challenging.
We were then interviewed one-on-one by the same guy. During this interview, the interviewer simply brought out your exam booklet and pointed out all your mistakes. He would then give you a hint and sit there and wait for you to try and solve it again. I found it very hard to think while this guy was staring at me, so naturally I didn't do very well.

Other Display Engineer Interview Reviews for Apple
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in May 2024
Interview
Stages I experienced
1) Short phone talk with the recruiter
2) Technical interview of around 30 minutes with an engineer
3) Whole-day technical interview with 5-6 engineers
I got an email saying they were moving with another candidate without feedback. Even though the interview process starts with an email stating, "We thought you would be a great match for their open position," I found it rude that they did not provide feedback or any reason for the rejection after I devoted so much time to an interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Generic questions about my experience and technical questions about the positon. Very few behavioral questions.
The interview consists of 2 rounds of phone screens. I believe there are further phone and on site rounds but I only got through the first two phone screens. The first round was with a hiring manager the second was with a display engineer.
