I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in Apr 2016
Interview
There were a few positions open and I applied through a friend. There was a quick turn around in getting a phone screen and the first interview which seemed to go very well. The follow up interview was six weeks later and then complete silence. Then after about a month of more silence, I get an email about more interviews with a different group. Ends up the email was for someone else and wasn't meant for me.
