## Interview experiences

One interview experience is associated with this question: [Apple Technical Program Manager interview experience](https://www.aced.io/experiences/apple-technical-program-manager-interview-c836f6).

- **Company:** Apple
- **Role:** Technical Program Manager
- **Level:** Mid Level / L4
- **Reported timing:** 10 months ago

> “A sourcer had been nudging me on LinkedIn for a while, so I never did a normal recruiter screen. Once I sent my resume, two hiring managers in the same Siri AI/ML org wanted to talk, so Apple ran one combined process for both EPM roles instead of making me do two separate loops. I did two hiring manager screens, then a joint onsite with a data science manager, an ML engineering manager, another behavioral round with one of the hiring managers, and a final conversation with a very senior engineering leader. The whole thing felt extremely team-dependent and very niche, especially the ML metrics parts, which is what made it different from more generic big-tech TPM loops. I finished in early December and got rejected.”
