Seeking RIM Interview Advice

[thezone]

So I am very excited over my upcoming interview with RIM. However, I'm curious to know what type of questions are generally asked for business operation roles. As the people I do know are engineers. Also do they ask those Google type interview questions? (eg How much should you charge to wash the windows in a Toronto?) Thanks in advance.

I assume you already had the phone interview and are now scheduled for an in-person one... they didn't ask me those types of questions when I interviewed for an IT Business Operations position, but it really depends on the manager, he can ask whatever.

What's the exact position title?

Actually, I didn't have a phone interview and my first interview will be on site for a Coordinator role. Also this is for co-op and not a regular full time position.

Sounds basic, but you'd be surprised how many people DONT do this. Something this small, have saved me many times during interviews I had no business passing.

Agreed

But don't just go on their company website and read off the first thing, they will be pleasantly surprised you did this, yet anyone can do it, dig deeper.

Be sure to talk about their stock prices.

Be sure to admit you have no life outside work and willing to work 80+ hours week

Be sure to tell the interviewer that you REALLY enjoy RIM JOBS (and wink twice at them after you say it).

You'd be surprised at how often this has helped me get jobs.
