As a Specialist, you build brand loyalty and create owners of Apple products and services. You're dedicated to selling and delivering a customer service experience that is unlike any other.

Support your peers throughout the store as needed by sharing knowledge about Apple's products, services and purchase options, and assist in offering ownership opportunities. Maintain accuracy and follow guidance. Perform other tasks as needed, including but not limited to providing customer service and support in other areas of the store. Contribute to an inclusive environment by respecting each other's differences and having the curiosity to learn. Demonstrate Apple's values of inclusion and diversity in daily activities.

And when we bring everybody in, we can do the best work of our lives together. That's why we continue to strengthen our long-standing commitment to efforts such as inclusive hiring and development and equitable pay for all.
What you work for should reflect what you stand for For everything we create, we consider its impact — on our customers, our colleagues and our planet. The same innovation that goes into making our products goes into taking on issues we care about deeply, such as accessibility, equity, privacy and the environment.
Everyone joins Apple for a reason. Often it's because they found a company that aligns with their own values.
Starting here is just the beginning People are at the heart of Apple and we want you to thrive. From day one, you'll have the opportunity to make meaningful contributions to the big picture. You can set yourself up for success with our career development framework, as well as guidance and resources that include course offerings from Apple University.
Change is a constant throughout your career at Apple, and you may choose different ways to grow. You can seek even greater depth within your expertise, change scope in your current position or even explore a new opportunity here. Whatever you decide, you'll play the lead role in your growth, and we'll be behind you all the way.
Your work is as meaningful to us as it is to you Apple Apple is organised by functional specialities rather than business units — rare for a company our size. We're experts leading experts: hardware experts lead hardware, software experts lead software and design experts lead design. This differs from most other large companies, where general managers oversee managers. Apple is Apple because those with the most expertise in an area of work have decision rights for that area.
Leaders at Apple combine their expertise with two other important characteristics: immersion in the details and a willingness to collaboratively debate during collective decision-making. For people at every level here, it can be liberating — even exhilarating — to work with experts who offer relevant guidance and mentoring. This approach to leadership is a commitment to collaboration that leads to innovation.
At Apple, collaboration is more than simply working together — it means passionate, collaborative debate. People on retail, hardware or marketing teams may focus on different issues, but the principles of respectful, honest discussion remain the same: we advocate ideas, contest points of view and ultimately build on each other's thinking to come up with the best solution.
Cross-functional collaboration is crucial, because no one team is responsible for a product or a service on its own. Dozens of specialist teams may be needed for even a single key component of a new product. Yet each team works with a shared purpose — create an extraordinary user experience.
When experts make the decisions, they decide to innovate Innovation is led by those who know their stuff, whether it's the first job of their life or the latest project in a career decades in the making. At Apple, innovation depends not only on brilliant individuals, but also on a community of specialists, each focused on what we can do instead of what's been done. We foster this culture by giving experts the room to take bold yet informed risks that lead to breakthroughs.
Everyone here is an innovator, or an innovator-to-be — even in areas customers don't typically notice: consider the Siri curators and engineers who help reduce bias with continual updates and respectful neutrality in search responses. Or the teams who designed, produced and shipped millions of COVID-19 face shields for front-line medical workers. Or the chef in one of our cafés who patented our environmentally friendly pizza box.
There's a place here for every kind of brilliant. Your speciality or ideal role may exist across many areas at Apple.
