Another view at the same project, courtesy of Daily WTF:<p><pre><code> By my third interview, I finally got the hang of things:
I quietly sat while the interviewer read my résumé for
the first time and then listened to him talk about his
exciting computing project. While I can’t remember what
his project was, I do remember what his response was to
my question about its application in science or business:
"errr, I’m not sure; I guess I don’t really understand
why you’d ask that."

As you can guess this person wasn't hired.<p><a href="http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/Thinking-Machines.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/Thinking-Machines.aspx</a>
