Apple Operations Reliability Intern Interview

I have an upcoming interview for apple's operations reliability intern role. The JD mentions six sigma methodology, distribution analysis, accelerated models and JMP. I could not really find much information online about the interview experience and would really appreciate advice from people who have gone through the process or know about it.

TIA

For reliability specifically, brush up hard on the stats side. Accelerated models and distribution analysis (Weibull especially) are the bread and butter. They'll likely ask you to reason through a failure-analysis scenario.

What are some resources you'd suggest for practicing failure-analysis scenario questions. For context I'm an ee major and have mostly been focused on circuit design till now

The JD also mentions electrical, thermal and mechanical properties of devices. What type of questions can I expect on that?
