I spent my undergraduate years putting in long hours at an Apple Store and am still humbled by the opportunity that I was given by a few different EPMs in California.įWIW, I’m happy to answer any more questions you might have about internships at Apple, though I’m sad to say my answer isn’t a happy one for you. Unfortunately, these were specialized internships (known as Career Experiences) available only to Apple Retail employees. How do I know all this? I was an EPM intern at Apple in 20.

I’ve never heard of any internships in those particular roles, I assume because they’re fairly narrow and industry specific (that is, much more like a music-industry or news job than a software PM). Other departments within Apple (notably, iTunes/Music and News) do have traditional PM roles, but they’re much less common within the company. The other major difference between a PMM and an EPM is the reporting chain - EPMs live within the same ‘org’ as the engineers they work with, while PMMs are part of the Marketing department and report to Phil Schiller. PMMs and EPMs collaborate with Engineering Managers to develop product roadmaps, schedule releases, and prioritize issues (though some bug prioritization is done just by the EPMs and Bug Review Board). EPMs are responsible for bringing those ideas to reality, building out the requirements into actual specifications, and ‘running the Radars’ - working closely with the software/hardware engineers to make sure everything gets done, tested, and launched on schedule. The PMM is responsible for some of the external-facing roles of a PM, in that they drive feature creation based on customer feedback, competing products, or new tech that could make the product better. Traditional functions of a PM are divided across two job roles, the Product Marketing Manager (PMM) and the Engineering Program Manager (EPM). Tl dr: No, but not for the reason you might expect.Īpple, unlike most other tech companies, doesn’t have a traditional PM role - with some exceptions.
