So you Want to be a Mac Genius?

by Marvin Sum on Jun 3, 2007 at 08:00 PM


MacLife recently featured an exclusive interview with 2 Apple Geniuses. Apparently, to be considered for Genius training, you start off by answering a bunch of technical questions. If you’re lucky enough to be selected, it’s off to the mothership (Cupertino) for two full weeks of training. All Apple Geniuses must acquire three certifications during training: OS, Desktop and Portable. They’re not very hard, though you have to be re-certified each year.

Prospective Geniuses are then sent off to Apple’s Retail complex, where they spend another two weeks training in classrooms, equipment rooms and a mocked-up Apple Store. They learn policies, procedures, system usage, etc, and once completed, they’re ready to work at a Genius Bar.

Sounds like fun? Want to become an Apple Genius? Check out jobs.apple.com for available positions.
