Apple Systems Engineer interview experience

I started with a recruiter interaction and then shifted into conversations about projects and experience, where the questions were more about how I’d worked and what I’d done before. After that, the interview moved squarely into behavioral and situational territory, and the whole thing felt like a calm back-and-forth rather than a rapid fire technical gauntlet.

In another similar setup, the process was also smooth with quick communication, and the hiring manager interview was essentially a thorough walk-through of my resume and past experience, where they asked for detail and follow-ups.
