I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Apple
Interview
After an Apple recruiter phone screen and a phone screen with the hiring manager, I interviewed with 17 people over two days. The first day was interviewing with people in the same team as the open position, and people in other teams that I would work with. The second day was interviews with higher-level people (senior managers, directors, etc.).

Other Engineering Program Manager Interview Reviews for Apple
First starts with a recruiter call
Then to a EPM peer, where you have a conversation on background and standard questions as well as a prioritization question.
Then if you pass, then you would move onto a loop with 5 other stakeholders.
I applied online. I interviewed at Apple (Austin, TX) in Jan 2026
Interview
Behavior based questions and based on background. No technically complex questions. But need to be technically knowledgeable and have the relevant experience in both engineering and program management. Pretty standard questions asked from all interviewers.

The overall interview process is long. It starts with general recruiter call followed by 2-3 one on one calls with hiring manager and recruiting teams, followed by a technical presentation and a day of panel interviews.
