Completed interview with Apple, met 8 people in total. I felt awesome with 7 out of 8 (including the hiring manager), one guy I’m not sure as he didn’t clearly give me indication. Do I have to get everyone’s blessing to get a positive feedback?

Yes.. HM has the most influence on the final decision though. SWE role?

I can’t speak for Apple specifically, but usually everyone will share their impressions and put you up against the other candidates. I have used a rating system in past where candidates get a score. It sorts it out pretty fast. If someone really does not like you or feel you are not the best pick for the job, that will be considered.

Will likely need Apple-specific feedback. Some firms differ. E.G. Google is pretty risk-averse, so you don’t need anyone banging the table for you to get hired while you’re doomed if someone thinks you’re a no-go.

The decision makers are the directors. From what I know 4 directors need to give you the stamp of approval, managers are not even included in the yes or no process unless you made a massive interview error. I turned down an offer at Apple recently because I have heard horrible things about their culture ( Zero WLB, internal backstabbing, lack of team comradery, etc) - So if culture is important to you, may be something to consider! Best of luck, OP!

How long was the process?
