If you have a Nokia phone, don't bring it with you!!! It may sound so far off but just to be cautious...

I would never ever mention I am a member on a website that deals in hacking of their phones and leaking of their confidential information. That just sets you up as an untrustworthy person.

Ya thats correct ''Oli'' but people who know about hacking know more than developer right? it may be positive! We have to tell such a things in a positive way. I'm also interested join in but don't see any vacancy matching me. And be confident though you prepared or not just be bold and be clear on whatever you know. Don't be nervous for any reason. Be interactive with the interviewer attract towards your talk and answers. And pretty good luck. I wann see u in

Oli is right.
Absolutely DO NOT mention Esato, M-R or any other forum. In some states in the US you can't get any job anywhere unless you give up usernames and passwords to all forums and social networking sites to which you are a member and YES this is legal in those states.

I have found that its a distinct disadvantage to be an 'enthusiast', they don't want a bar of you.

Just stick to your experience, emphasize your qualifications and achievements and if they ask about your phone, just say you "got it cheap and it does the job". Be interested in the career opportunities not the phones and you'll do fine.

Don't attempt to tell them to add A/F to more phones or you'll end the interview right there...

Even if you mention esato, dont mention M-R. Its "Eldar"ous.

That's right. At my job at a games arcade, we won't employ anybody that says that they love playing the games we have because that's like them saying "I only want the job for the free games". Don't mention you're an enthusiast or you've got no chance.

But good luck. I hope you get the position mate.

Actually, I don't think beeing enthuziastic can be bad.... I was enthuziastic, and I got a job at SE Andn I'm looooving it.

Btw, what position are you applying, and where?
