Had to do an online assessment first to check if your personality matches Apple. You answer multiple questions about hypothetical scenarios. After that was a virtual interview with other applicants where they ask everyone the same questions and go in the same order of people. Then there was another virtual group interview after that with a store manager.

It took months before I finally got a call back after I first applied. At the first interview, a manager looked over my resume and asked if I thought I could handle the gist of the job. We were in a crowded mall during this. The next round was with the store manager, also at the mall. The questions were almost the same, and they all seemed focused on how comfortable I was with basic tech and on my personality.
Confirmed questions4 questions
- Do you have any questions you want to ask me?
- Do you feel like you can handle what this job is about?
- How at ease are you working with basic tech stuff?
