If you want to work in a department like marketing or business development, you don't necessarily need to earn a degree in computer science or engineering. However, tech companies are biased towards hiring people with at least rudimentary tech skills, and a history of interest in technology. Demonstrate this interest in your academic and professional pursuits before applying to Apple. Regardless of your college major, you can squeeze in a class on coding, or even some seminars on the impact of technology in society. Understanding the basics of how Apple develops its products and the role it plays in our economy as a whole will set you up for success regardless of what position you're applying for. Before you pursue a career at Apple, try to gain experience by applying for jobs and internships at other tech companies or in related fields. This will also help demonstrate technical curiosity and skill. Whether you're still in high school, working towards your undergrad degree, or figuring out what you want to do now that you've finished your masters, start working on a personal project or venture. Whether you're initiating research in a field that interests you, developing an app, or launching a start-up, "starting something" will demonstrate that you have many qualities that Apple prizes: initiative, curiosity, leadership, passion for technology, and creativity. If you have a great idea for a project but have little coding or software development or experience, you can recruit knowledgeable friends to help you, or even outsource a development team. You don't need to be a full-on computer whiz to launch an exciting venture. Recruiters for large tech companies like Apple often take very little time to assess an applicant's resume before placing it in either the "yes" or "no" pile. To ensure that your qualifications get noticed, create a clear, short resume that emphasizes your most important experiences and accomplishments. Skip including minor awards, projects, or test scores on your resume. Make room for more recent accomplishments that are relevant to the position you're applying for. If you're seeking a role that involves design or engineering, be it software, hardware, or marketing graphics, create an online portfolio to showcase your accomplishments and provide examples of your work. For example, if you developed an app, include a description of your work process and screenshots of the interface. If you want to be a mechanical engineer or product designer, include pictures and descriptions of previous projects. Provide a link to this portfolio in your resume, or any other correspondence you might have with hiring managers. If someone who already works at Apple and has some influence on the hiring process in the department you're interested in knows who you are, your resume might get a closer look. They'll be even more likely to give you thorough consideration if a mutual acquaintance introduces you to them. Ask your connection to copy you on an email to the Apple employee that provides a summary of your accomplishments and career goals. Then, if the employee replies, start an e-mail thread between just the two of you. In your messages, be straightforward about your background, your interests, and your desires. If the employee wants to learn more about you, or believes that they could help, set up a phone call for further discussion. Along with more typical interview questions such as describing personal strengths and weaknesses, or recounting creative solutions you implemented at previous jobs Apple interviewers will ask you tricky problem-solving questions. Look up examples of these questions and practice them ahead of time so you're not caught off guard during your interview. If you're interviewing for an operations or business development position, you may be asked to solve large-scale problems using mental math. For instance, you may be asked to calculate how much the empire state building weighs, or how many babies are born every day. If you're interviewing for a hardware engineering position, you may encounter questions that test your technical knowledge and capability. Candidates have been asked to sketch the inside architecture of an iPhone, explain how airplane wings work, or describe in detail what would happen if you placed a glass of water on a spinning turntable. Don't be intimidated or flustered if a question initially seems impossible. Interviewers will assess your ability to persevere in searching for a better answer, even if it's not perfectly correct. Most Apple employees dress very casually, and you'll want to blend in and look like you belong. However, be warned though the environment is not overtly "corporate", you should still conduct yourself respectfully and avoid getting too comfortable or friendly with your interviewers. Wear a nice shirt or top with a good pair of jeans to your interview. A suit is definitely overkill. Avoid making inappropriate or extremely personal statements, especially during informal meals. It might feel like you're eating out with a few new friends, but it's still an interview don't forget that you're being constantly evaluated. If you really liked or admired someone who interviewed you, ask them for their e-mail address and send them a brief note telling them how much you enjoyed meeting them, how excited you are about the potential opportunity, and that you hope to hear from them soon. This is a conscientious touch that will help your potential employers remember you long after the interview is over.

Do you view having two boyfriends as "cheating"? If so, recognize you will be living in moral tension. If you believe you are polyamorous, on the other hand, you may be seeking relationships that will be a better fit for your personal identity. Perhaps you and they will find a polyamorous relationship satisfying. Even if your boyfriends are not themselves interested in multiple romantic relationships, they may find your honesty refreshing if you truly aren't ready to settle down with one person exclusively. Do these boyfriends meet different needs? How will you organize your time and energy? Consider scheduling. When will you see each boyfriend, and for what types of activities? If you are keeping the two relationships secret, how will you ensure that one does not learn about the other, or vice versa? Think about how your other relationships may be impacted by having two boyfriends. Will friends and/or family approve? Who should you be telling? How will you cope with the possibility of appearing linked with one partner for some friends or relatives, and another for a different set?
