here is the email I got. I'm leaving out the addy and the persons name.

Thank you for visiting the Apple Career Center. I hope you found it both interesting and informative. I would welcome the chance to schedule a time to speak with you about career opportunities at Apple Retail. Please respond via e-mail with the day and time, as well as telephone number that works best for your schedule. I will schedule a time that is convenient for both of us and send a confirmation response to you.

Thank you for your time and interest in Apple. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Regards,

Okay? So are you like bragging?

Congrats I'm sure everyone here is just green with envy.

Good luck! Tel us how it goes, cause once I turn 18 I'm planning on Applying. But the only thing that sucks is that you can't be apart of forums like this... But it's the price that you pay i guess...

You make it sound like it's a chore. If you love Mac you shouldn't have problems talking about them. After all isn't that why we all come here? >_<"

I would be interested in knowing how they keep people from being parts of forums after all your online screenname is completely seperate from your real life identidy in most cases , does anyone know how they enforce this?

Not really bragging. it's just an interview. I plan on posting again with interview info.... just to give others an idea what to expect.

I live in the middle of nowhere, so the nearest Apple store is about 2 hours away! There are, though stores that sell Apple stuff.

What I mean is that Apple doesn't allow you to be apart of forums like this. You can get fired if you do, in fact when you get the job you sign a contract that says you wont. By all means I love talking about how Macs are better than Windows, especially to my friends..lol

That's not so unusual. Let me tell you, my employer would be upset if I went onto forums like this making comments that could be construed to represent the company.

Would you actually have to leave this or any other Apple-related forum altogether? Or would you simply have to promise that you won't discuss anything related to your employment with the company or give out information that you otherwise wouldn't be privy to?

our local apple store displays a big ability to speak the official apple line. during the interview seems they will want to find this in the prospective hire.

what makes me laugh is the appearance of the people working there...

mostly young kids... I'm older so they look like kids to me. Unshaved, old dirty jeans w/ holes in them, tattoos, long hair not even combed or styled. Looked like they just got out of bed....

on most jobs, if you showed up to an interview looking like they do, they would ask you to leave.

I guess the Apple culture is different huh?
