Interviewed at Apple last week. HM seemed to indicate that he wasn’t actually filling the role but building out a roster for sometime mid next year. Is this accurate? Seems weird to just come out and say that. #apple

He wouldn’t be able to interview you if he wasn’t hiring.
Can the process take that long?
Not usually no. Hiring managers don’t “build out a roster” unless there’s a very special circumstance like they’re planning to build a whole new team in the future. The fact they interviewed you at all indicates they had budget to hire someone. They could have found someone else, or somehow lost their budget. Either way it’s not good news for you, unfortunately. Ask the recruiter/HM to keep you in mind and then move on.
