That is a standard thing they say. The HR person you interviewed w/ Second has to be the one to offer/decline the position. Have faith!
Maybe you could send a follow-up email thanking them and that may move it along?
This is not something that the report shows on mine either..and I called and asked and they just referred me to Apple.
Does anyone know if it's possible to become a college advisor if you don't attend one of the listed schools?
Do you have any tips to getting your resume pushed through? I've applied about 7-8 times and never heard back from any of them. I would love to at least hear back from them on one of them. Do you mind if we email? Jalen949@gmail.com
I've applied for almost 7-8 AHA jobs in my state and surrounding others. I haven't heard anything back yet. Is anyone willing to help me out with what they put during the applying process and their resume? All help is greatly appreciated! So happy for all of you that got hired!! Hope that is me soon.
Easier to emai me probably, jalen949@gmail.com

Don't call Apple, It will change to Meet company standards days later, maybe after u get ur offer call. Long as it says Complete, ur ok.
I put in roughly 50 applications in my state and surrounding states before I had my first interview. It took about 2 weeks after doing so before I was called. I just had my 3rd interview yesterday and am anxiously waiting to find out if I got the position.
I applied for AHA-Apple Care position earlier today. I got an email a few hours later asking for my resume. I emailed my resume, then got a call shortly after that. My facetime interview is scheduled for next week. The position starts in November. It seems to be moving rather quickly so far. I wasn't expecting them to call me so soon. I'm nervous about the facetime interview.
Mine, still just says completed and haven't received a call yet, for some reason I'm starting to think I'm not going to get it now. It's been like 15 business days since my background check showed as completed. I'm still kinda optimistic because I haven't gotten a rejection call or email yet either but a solid three weeks after my bgc showed as completed and nothing back is a little worrisome. I've gotten other offers in the meantime but I want this one so bad.
Have u called or emailed your recruiter? Or maybe call Hireright. They are very helpful and maybe they can tell you what the holdup is. Stay positive until they give u a for sure answer. Sometimes these things take time.
I emailed my recruiter twice and she hasn't gotten back, I called hireright and they said everything is done on their end and referred me to apple. I considered trying to call an hr number to see what's up but I was trying very hard to not be "that guy" lol but I am definitely getting closer to that point now.
Well, just called corporate and I'll give you guys a heads up she said hiring decision post background checks can take up to six weeks depending on the job and your recruiters' work load. There isn't a number or a department in which you can get status updates also. Sole communication will be through the recruits either via phone or email.....hope that helps for anyone else in a longer wait.
Hey everyone. I've been watching Macrumors and Glassdoor for the past week, to prep. It is very clear that everyones experiences during this process are dramatically different, even if the posts to this thread seem similar. I think the factors that determine our timelines are not something we can help, nor control. I have finished my 3 interviews, I'm nervous, I'm qualified, and gosh darn it, people like me. I felt as though each interview went well, I am self-aware enough to critique the things I could have done better.
To date: The process of applying, getting the 1st call, and completing interview 3, has taken 1 week. Thats all. It could have taken longer, based upon when I decided to schedule my 3rd interview. I scheduled it as soon as I could. Like you, I want this job. Now I wait, to receive an offer to verify my background or to hear "we've decided to move forward with someone else."
My timeline makes the waiting for any further communication feel magnified, even though I have gotten the same "timeline expectations" that people have gotten since the dawn of AHA. I have been told I will start in iOS, sometime in November, if hired.
Minutes seem like hours, Hours seem like years. The idea that I will hear something within two weeks is mortifying, simply because that is twice as long as it took me to find myself typing this post.
Its Friday, I hope everyone worried has an amazing weekend. I hope you can clear your mind of the stress of the process and enjoy a carefree weekend, regardless of circumstance.
Stay positive and determined, those qualities are infectious. If Apple doesn't work out now, someone else will gain from employing you!
Hang in there!!! <3

I had my 3rd interview on Wednesday and haven't heard anything yet. Hopefully I get a phone call Monday offering me the position. Fingers crossed. I just know this is going to be a long weekend waiting. I'm praying they decide to move forward with me and wishing everyone else good luck on getting the position as well!!
Monday is a holiday, maybe Tuesday or Wednesday instead.
I recently quit Apple after working in iTunes chat for 2 years. You will give up EVERY single Holiday, nights,days and weekends as well. After two years you bid on the same shifts as someone who just started it's crap! Received a very small raise in those 2 years as well. Worked every single weekend for the last year and a half 11 hour shifts at that. So if you're not willing to do that then it won't work out for you. I finally got sick of it and missed my kids, luckily I found another WAH job that pays more and is flexible so it worked out for me. The benefits are awesome but not worth not seeing your family over. The Holliday season is coming up and you can't even schedule time off from basically Thanksgiving to after new year because it's so busy NO DAYS off...Feel free to ask any questions I quit so don't have anything to lose now
..Just because it's Apple doesn't mean it's perfect it's far fromYou stayed for 2 years, why?? and u had to give up every weekend?? no weekends off ever?? what is the purpose of pto of they dont let you use it when u need to. I understand not being able to take off during holidays though.

I find your post disheartening, maybe its true, and I do appreciate that but it also discourages me as a new hire for Apple.. I wish I hadn't of read it cause I can't get it out of my head. I have good friends and family who work there in this role and love it, i hope that is the case for me too. I also have a family and children and have chosen to just work around this as I think its a great opportunity. I am not blind to the fact we have to give up the day of christmas, etc, we will celebrate another day/hour, but was it really all that bad besides that? I've read both ways and I truly hope it's a great experience for me!
