A good interview question is not necessarily one that elicits specific answers but explores how the candidate approaches a problem. A few months ago I had to interview support people and asked how they would speed up a slow running query - that allows them to talk about query optimisation and database tuning. A few weeks later I was being interviewed and got asked the self-same question. As other people have said, you need someone there to eveluate the answers. Ian
