In the second interview, I was asked about my writing skills. I'm not sure exactly what they were looking for. I mentioned that I had recently had a paper accepted for publication and that seemed satisfactory to her.

In the second interview, I was asked about my writing skills. I'm not sure exactly what they were looking for. I mentioned that I had recently had a paper accepted for publication and that seemed satisfactory to her.

They asked several fairly standard programming type questions (traverse a binary tree, path finding, etcetera). The biggest curve ball was when they asked a very standard programming question, then after I solved it in the common and obvious way asked "Okay, now how would you do that without using the technique you just used." It was a good question, and one I answered poorly. I *think* that's what cost me the job.
