Hey guys;
On Saturday, I have an interview scheduled for the Genius position at the Apple Store in my area. I am prepping myself, with the standard questions: "Why do you want to work at Apple?" "Name a weakness that you have" stuff like that. I am also perusing all of the Mac forums I can, so that I can "prep" myself with technical questions, as well. I am coming to you, simply for more help!
I'd love for you to post any types of questions you think might be on the interview. For those of you who have gone through them before, I understand that there is a non-disclosure agreement, and I am not asking you to break that. I simply want questions you think that they may ask, so that I can feel more prepared.
I feel that interview questions may range from "What's your favorite Apple product, and why?" to "Name a time when you have to exhibit leadership", to "What is the joint-venture program" and up through "What do you do if the MacBook Pro won't load Snow Leopard, and is stuck at the spinning wheel?"
Let me know what else you think I should prep for, and thanks in advance!
p.s. On a side note, should I let the stubble grow out for a few days, make myself look a bit more "nerdy"? Or do I go clean-cut, brand new haircut?

I took three quarters of PhotoShop in my design program at a community college. For me, classes trump books and the Net combined.

I have been waiting for a major upgrade to the cinema displays since I got my laptop in June 2006 - since waiting like the rest of you.
I wonder if eventually the iMac will be thinner than the current cinema displays, then they will have to upgrade.
To be honest, it doesn't need to be a major upgrade, take the price down by a third and half the thickness of the screen and I would be happy.
One day my friends...one day :confused:

I agree with everything Talmy has said apart from the resolution. It isnt low resolution. In comparison to a 27" ACD, or 27" Dell Ultrasharp, yeh ok then its low. but Full HD resolution is good enough for you uses. I know an entire Design Company using AutoCAD and Alias, there isnt a single monitor there with better resolution than Full HD because they dont need it!!
For that price its pretty good!!

Are you on a visa, and if so what kind?
Japanese immigration won't give you a working visa without a four year degree.

This is the cheapest weighted keyboard that I know of. It's USB and midi, a sustain pedal input and that's it. It's very basic but it works perfectly fine, has pitch bend and modulation. I gave you the link on B&H cause it's the cheapest one that I know of, also I am in love with B&H and I reuse to acknowledge any other website exists ;) It's only 140 bucks. This may seem expensive but it's VERY cheap for a semi weighted keyboard. If you want 88 keys then they have a larger version of that. It's... 200 I think. As for headphones... idk haha

Hi, firstly sorry i have posted this in the wrong section.
Anyway I want to buy an external hard-drive for my macbook, and i was just wondering if i need to get a specific type for mac. I would like to use it with time machine but is it also possible to use it for my windows 7 partition too? Any suggestions to which external hard drive i should get? preferably cheap as im a student but 500gb + . Thankyou in advance :)
Any external hard drive will work with PCs or Macs, as long as the connectors are there (Firewire, USB, etc.) It doesn't matter how the drive is formatted out of the box, since you can re-format any way you like. Yes, you can partition and format the drive with Disk Utility, to accommodate both a Windows 7 partition and a HFS+ partition.

This is interesting - can anyone confirm that the website didn't do this before?
You really think that they would use a .org domain for a phone? If Apple follows through with a phone, I would be extremely surprised to see any domains used besides Apple.com or iTunes.com

As I posted in a more obscure thread,
Never forget that the zune brought us this:

I still find it a little disturbing but I think it's also possibly the single funniest thing I've ever seen involving Microsoft.

There is no excuse for double-posting.
what was I supposed to do? what forever for a reply that will never come just because it was posted on the wrong part of the forum?!
Come on!.. this is not corrective action, this is all the way rude.. :mad:

Good call, chances are it is just bad. If you get another one that doesn't work, could be a bad firmware on the drives that make it incompatible with a Mac. Have you tried plugging it into a Windows PC?

There are drivers, the OS just does a good job hiding them from you. ;)

Check out the "Print Center" app in your Applications/Utilities folder to add the printer. It should set it up automatically if the printer is connected correctly and turned on.

A relative has an eMac, and I've been using her Sound Studio which comes installed. Now I have bought a Mac Mini and was saddened to discover Sound Studio does not come installed. With all the extra bells and whistles my "innexpensive" mini came to $850+... you'd think they could have included this one program
Would there be a way to get this pgm into the mac mini off the emac installation discs? I opened the emac disc 1 on the mini and did the "go to folder" thing (/volumes/ disc name /System/Installation/Packages/)
to see the installation packages, but sound studio was not there among the dozen or so choices.
There was a package listed called "additional software" in the directory but I'm hesitant to launch that. For disc 2, I could not discern the right "go to folder" path to get it to display other than a pdf saying "go to disc 1."
Any ideas? Or is all this a bit risky/dodgy?

I've noticed that these now don't work with USB DVD drives for the Bootcamp thing. Like you said this is a REAL drag for the Optibay crowd.
But as far as your MS issues go, try using Winclone to make an image of Bootcamp and experiment. Sometimes these things can be inexpicable.

This is a total no-brainer. T-Mobile doesn't have it's own network, it rents its airtime from Cingular... Apple and Cingular are already in bed. It's a trickle-down effect... T-Mobile wants their own iPhone. Not surprising, really. (and yeah, release the Cracken! (err.. iPhone!)...
T-Mobile is an independent network. It and Cingular have rented infrastructure to one another at various times in the past to mutually help with each other's coverage, but T-Mobile is a real mobile phone operator. (It's what used to be Voicestream.)
I'm not entirely sure why people keep propogating this myth. It makes no sense on the face of it.

Why would it not be? If you apply a 90% rate evenly to the top percentile, seems to me it would be quite fair. It would help fund the government assistance programs that will make it easier for him to survive on a paltry $500 million.
There has to be some incentive to work harder. Taxing him at 50% or so would be OK though.
