RealNetworks interview experience - part 3 (last one I promise!)
Jan 21 2008, 10:42 PM EST
So,the bottom line, or maybe lines :) -

1.Know the company inside out.
2.Have good Queastions(Do not ask stuff which you can google & find out. Questions like–What are the qualities of your most successful Product manager?What does it take to become one?If I get an internship would you like me to take some specific course/do some prep work?, Some personal questions about the interviewer, Questions that show you have read about them etc)
3.Make some suggestions if you have any.
4.During the interview try to show you have read up on them; like– When the interviewer mentioned “Recently we acquired a company in UK..” I said “Oh! You mean XYZ company”.They need to know you are interested in them & are not just there to try your luck.
5.Body Language–confident, perked up, all excited (do not overdo though:)) & smiling.
6.Show them you are not just a good fit but you are the BEST fit.
7.Know your resume well for the personal interview so that you have responses ready when they ask questions like–when did you display quantitative skills, leadership skills etc.You can also have experiences outside of your resume but try to make it experiences from your work life as opposed to school life as much as possible.

Phew,I think that’s a long post! For more specific questions please feel free to accost me whenever you spot me :) I hope this helps.I know most of this might be obvious to quite a few,but for me,this being my first interview in the U.S,it was a huge learning experience.I hope I am of some help to the few who are in the same boat as me!
Cheers!
