Interviewing with Apple next week for the roles of Global Supply Manager (GSM) and Worldwide Procurement Analyst in Austin. Does anyone have any tips or advice for the interview? What kind of questions do they ask?
Also, what’s the compensation like in Austin specifically? I would think the compensation would be different than Cupertino. Anyone have any offers or salaries for these positions in Austin?

Not worth asking because you can't trust the answer. At this time I believe a lot of the job ads are fake anyway, so the answer may not be about you at all anyway. In other cases the company can open themselves up for litigation if the real reason isn't exactly fair.
What you can do is check in 1-3 months to see who got the job -their LinkedIn profile will tell you what they wanted (cheaper or more experienced, or more experience in some area etc.)
Also should add - companies are still going through budget cuts and lay offs. A lot of positions they think they'll be able to hire, get frozen.
If you're going through a recruiter, that person knows exactly what is going on, as much as the company will tell, though.
1) they are being told what to look for in someone else
2) they may have another position you match
I've done this in the past and in most cases I've gotten generic responses, but in some cases they've got some specific thoughts on what went wrong.
