  Hey Ken, I was sort of curious about this line: >Generally I'll ask questions until I'm sure the candidate is smarter than me. Are these the sort of brain teasers we see in engineering interviews or something else?

    No brain teasers. Good analytical questions are open-ended, fuzzy, and don't have "right" or "trick" answers. I want to test problem-solving abilities, not interview research and memorization skills :-)
