Around 2 months after I submitted my resume for Apple software engineer position, I got a call from the hiring manager. He asked me what was the good day for the interview. It took half day for meeting 5 people. It was long hour interview for me. Each interviewer spent ~ 30 minutes and asked ~ 4 questions. Each interviewer asked questions in the different areas.

Easy interview
Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Apple in Apr 2016
Interview
One phone screen. I had applied long time back, recruiter called me to know my strengths and skill set. Then passed onto another recruiter who took some time to set up a phone screen. It was half an hour phone screen. Waited for a day, then inquired. Got the ding mail.
Given that I had other companies who were interested in me. I had to make time for the phone screening by de-prioritizing other companies . Unless they pursue you strongly dont bother wasting time.
