J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Apple
Entretien
Contacted recruiter directly on LinkedIn, followed by a technical phone interview. The interview manager seemed to be in a hurry, called 10 minutes late and kept saying that he has just 10 minutes to finish the interview. Not much time was given to answer the questions. So in just 10 minutes - he told me about the team and work, asked me several questions, and let me ask questions.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
- How will you reduce the deflection of a wooden beam with load at one end and fixed at other?
- Beam material replaced with Aluminum and load is same, how will you find the point of failure?
- 5 methods to join plastic and metal components.

i had my interview today and was asked the same question. also similarly, the interviewer had no sense of humor. it was not a enjoyable experience because i think i gave like 3-4 different ways of making a cantilever, but i was asked "what else?" like 10 times for the cantilever problem alone. i also have 7 years of work experience, but there was 0 question asked about it.

Question 1
What causes corrosion, and how do you design to mitigate it?
The interview went well overall. The interviewer opened with a discussion about a project I'm proud of, then a beam scenario question that covered structural and load analysis, stress and deflection, and material selection — testing my ability to connect first-principles thinking across the full problem space.

Interview with hiring manager then virtual onsite. They ask you general mechanical engineering questions as well as questions dependent on type of team and skills they are looking for. Not bad overall just brush up on basic beam deflection, GD&T, Design analysis etc.
