RealNetworks interview experience - part 1
Jan 21 2008, 10:37 PM EST I had a phone interview and a one-on-one with RealNetworks. My notes on the same- The one thing I learnt as being the most important was/is- LEARN ALL YOU CAN ABOUT THE COMPANY!No matter whatever else you do,this is totally indispensable.I had one meeting with Marcy(BCC)before my phone interview & one before my one-on-one.I spent all my time & energy in reading/googling all I could about Real.Took notes as & when I learnt/read new stuff. THE PHONE-It is key to convey your emotions across the phone as they can only hear you & not see you smiling/frowning,sound extremely motivated & excited. For my phone interview, I had 6 sheets of paper set in front of me–company info,latest news about them, acquisitions, products, my resume & key points from the “Marcy” meeting, on how to conduct oneself during a phone interview. Remember they should never hear the ruffle of paper on the phone, be very careful. Have bulletized reasons as to why you are a GOOD MATCH. Make it short and sweet. The attention span on the phone is very less & unless you make it sound interesting you can be sure they are not listening beyond 60 seconds. Try to have 1-2-3 points for the common questions like–your achievements, failure, why you?, why us?,etc. For me,it was primarily a resume walkthrough & most importantly proving that talking to them made sense to my career path & why it was important to me. Do you find this valuable? |
