I had 5 (45 min each) phone screens / interviews and then a full 9 panel interview at Apple ( hardware : display ) last week all of which went very well. I asked recruiter for feedback but did not get a reply. Does Apple display groups not get back to candidates with a decision? I have other very good offers but isn’t it a little unethical to not give a final decision to candidate who has given such a long interview? last year TC: 250k #apple
Have had the same experience OP I went ahead with my other offer . The hiring manager was on my LinkedIn and saw my job change post
Sweet
Was really hoping for a decision though , didn’t hear for 2 months
Pretty standard. Be patient
5 phone interviews? Jesus Christ..
It was tiring … I don’t know what they wanted to check that they couldn’t in one or two or three …. If anything the phone interviews happened over a period of 10 days but the full panel interview was one long day that ended at 6 pm
Jezz that seems wasteful and inefficient.
I had an interview with Apple last week as well, but haven’t heard back. Best of Luck OP! I hope we hear back soon.
Good luck to you too ! I hope you hear good news soon
Have you mentioned you have an offer already to the recruiter? Usually they will move fast when you mention it. (Either it is positive or negative). since they are taking time, they maybe evaluating against you with the other pipelined candidates. If you like the team, wait for the response. If the team is meh, I would say don’t.
Thanks for the advise , this helps !
Best of luck! What’s your YOE if you don’t mind me asking. And are you EE or ME?
Dm me I will reply don’t want to disclose publicly

Why does everyone say that Amazon is toxic?
I am in limbo with some. I think that sometimes they have a candidate with an offer in process, but they don't stop interviewing. Then when the other candidate accepts, they can send you a rejection. I know this has happened at least twice to me.
Good luck to you! I hope you hear some good news soon! But can’t they just say they are interviewing other candidates and would get back if anything changes ? I find lack of communication very unprofessional
OP: I'm in the same boat of waiting for response after full day interview. Apple seems to be notorious about leaving people in limbo. But after all, they know they have options and they also have their own agenda. When companies are in that position they won't think twice about ghosting. Best of luck to both of us.
