I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Apple

3. I talked with HR by phone
4. Then I waited for the interview about 10 days
5. Finally, I received the rejected email without a reason
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Sunnyvale, CA) in Sept 2017
Interview
Contacted by recruiter, had technical phone screen, then went onsite to be grilled for 5 hours non-stop. I got no offer for a job I'm qualified for. It's not me, it's you, interview process. I actually rather enjoyed most of the people I met, and I sense some level of empathy which is rare in tech interviews, and it's nice that conversations are one on one, rather than a group panel style. The experience is negative due to it's failure to identify me as a highly qualified for the job.
