Oh wut? I got an interview from the first application, back in (checks bookmarks) 2012 (edit: It looks like they applied for McMurdo, not the South Pole). It was an odd one - the first question was what to do first when entering the server room. I'd actually read up on a few things, and the correct answer was to ground yourself to get rid of the ridiculous amounts of static electricity which builds up in a super-dry environment. Static discharge has killed a whole bunch of their equipment.
Another question was what I'd do if one of my family members had a medical emergency and could only be saved by an organ donation by me. In case of bad timing there next flight out would be in almost a year, so there would be nothing I could do. That one … was a bit harder to answer.
