Job Applicant Recounts His Hiring Process

A newly-hired Apple store Genius in Portland (Ore.) can expect to be paid $17 a hour, according to an applicant for the position who has posted his hiring experience on the MacBlogz.com Web site. Aviv Hadar said he was curious about Apple’s hiring process, and so applied last July and ended up receiving a hiring offer. In the story, he recounts his hiring interview at an unidentified retail store, a pop-quiz on Apple products, and also posts his hiring letter that sets out the various legal requirements of employment. Interestingly, Aviv was given just two days to make a decision, and would have started work three days after that. Hadar turned down the offer, since he was already employed full-time and never had the intention to take the job.
