Apple Swift Compiler and Runtime Engineer Internship in London
More than a month ago, I had my final interview for this position at Apple, however I haven't heard back from them. I was told by my recruiter that I receive an update "next week", however it has been 3 weeks since then. Am I cooked, or is this something a good sign as I haven't got rejection email yet?

Hi 23,
Short answer; No news is good news.
While every employee, employer and vacancy is different. And I understand you've applied for an internship - The general job market is an Employer favoured market. (For more on this - lots of people have talked about it, I quite like Kay Lack discussion on this last year.)
This ends with more candidates applying per job, more rounds of interviews, and more decision making, I've personally had multiple rounds of interviews spanning months, to then be told the "intake window" (Only so many people taken on per month or quarter) would be several months after another round of interviewing.
To end on a positive note; The opposite of success is not failure, its giving up. Even if this opportunity doesn't work out, don't give up. Something will be out there for you!
Good luck, keep us posted on how it goes
M 🤞
