If I understand the question correctly, will a software tester be held accountable for their work - yes. You are assigned areas to test and any reports you file on software errors (bugs) are used for traceability - this is required to fix bugs and this report is also used to verify if the bug wa...
What a hardware engineer at apple does varies significantly depending on the team they work with. This could range from low level layout chip design, to gate level circuit design, or at a higher level RTL and system architecture. Typically, students take courses and work on projects/internships t...
I liked many things such as the work itself and how challenging it is. I was really given the freedom to give new ideas and even explore them and work on them. I loved that about Apple (again, this might vary with teams). What I wish was a little different is the openness about the project I was ...
There are two areas where you need knowledge: tools and theory. The tools may be specific to the job description. In my case, they included Splunk. You should know at least one programming language, preferably Python and/or R. You should definitely know SQL regardless. Then there is the theory wh...
Someone who would be successful at Health Tech is someone who is curious, passionate, hard working, and not afraid to take initiative. Sometimes we have weeks where we are very busy and you have to be willing to put in the work, but some weeks your project may have nothing going on, and it's time...

Be about to talk through your UX process!
Know the projects in your portfolio like the back of your hand - if you don’t have a portfolio yet, you’ll need to make one! Squarespace has plenty of templates to help you with this process. Choose and customize one that works best for your needs and ty...
If by training program, you mean the IS&T Intern Development Program (which is a verrrrry small subset of Apple’s intern community), it’s pretty hard to answer this question. I had a pretty rare situation as an intern, so I don’t think my experience would be very indicative of what a “typical" de...
There were times, when there was an urgent release (a new feature) and we had to work till morning. If there's an issues, managers/ team lead can send an email at 10 pm and you are expected to reply and fix it right now. Unlike consultants, there is no fixed schedule like 9-5 for full-time employ...
The training is about 9 weeks M-Th for 4 hours and an 9 hour weekend shift. You can choose the time (I think the options were 5-9 or 6-10 during the week and then you chose Saturday or Sunday 9-6). You’re put into a group of about 20 other advisors and you go through virtual training as a team w...
