As Apple opens its 495th store in Dubai Mall on Thursday, it has also rolled out employment opportunities for the UAE youth aspiring to work with the tech giant.
Hundreds of UAE residents are already working in different departments of the company. However, cracking an Apple interview is not a cakewalk. Candidates are bombarded with technical questions besides being put to some mind blogging puzzles. According to the Gadgets Now, some of the toughest interview questions asked by the Apple are as under:
1: If you have 2 eggs, and you want to figure out what's the highest floor from which you can drop the egg without breaking it, how would you do it? What's the optimal solution?
2: Explain to an 8-year-old what a modem/router is and its functions?
3: You have a 100 coins lying flat on a table, each with a head side and a tail side. 10 of them are heads up, 90 are tails up. You can't feel, see or in any other way find out which side is up. Split the coins into two piles such that there are the same number of heads in each.
4: How would you breakdown the cost of this pen?
5: A man calls in and has an older computer that is essentially a brick. What do you do?
6:Are you smart?
7: Have you ever disagreed with a manager's decision, and how did you approach the disagreement? Give specific examples.
8: You put a glass of water on a record turntable and begin slowly increasing the speed. What happens first - does the glass slide off, tip over, or does the water splash out?
9: Why should we hire you?
10: Why did Apple change its name from Apple Computers Incorporated to Apple Inc?
11: How would you test a toaster?
12: If we hire you, what do you want to work on?
