I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Apple (Cupertino, CA) in May 2020
Interview
2 technical "screenings" followed by a virtual onsite round with 6 interviewers over a 7 hour period (45 min slots and breaks), completely technical in nature. All questions are drawn from core basics . i.e RC circuits, RL circuits, op-amps, filters, bode plots, DC-DC converter drawings and analysis and some complex circuit analysis. The interviewers were a mixed bunch, a couple very engaged and interested, some extremely disengaged and wanting to get through the round with minimal interaction. Overall there is little emphasis in talking about your past projects, just many problems to solve on the spot. Be prepared with those and you'll likely do well.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
RC circuit voltage and current plots, inductive load circuit, buck converter analysis, complex circuit analysis, low pass filter behavior, ADC related calculations.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Apple (Houston, TX) in Apr 2026
Interview
I was reached out by a recruiter to schedule a 30-min recruiter screening. I was asked basic questions about my availability, motivation for the role and why are you leaving the correct role.
The next round was a technical discussion with the hiring manager.

Question 1
I interviewed with the hiring manager, he asked me questions about ADC testing and calibration from my resume. Asked me to design a RC filter with gain and talked about I2C communication and how does SI cause droop and its prevention.
