Relatively informal and experience based. The questions were directly related to the role and relied on providing clear examples. It felt pretty casual and as per a standard production conversation where you would be expected to provide evidence of your work.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Apple (Tokyo) in Sep 2015
Interview
This was a position in Tokyo, Japan.
I met with the internal recruiter, then VP of marketing, producer, head of channels, creative director, cross functional producer, group director (in Cupertino over FaceTime).
Everyone was really nice, and the entire process was pleasant. I met with quite a few people (there were more than what I listed above, but I can't remember exactly who they were), and there were no particularly hard questions.
In the end I did not get the offer because they were looking for a more junior level person.
