I don't mind sharing about that. Standard Charter has the reputation for being a great Haskell shop and I have been trying for years to up my Haskell skills.

I simply didn't have enough background in Haskell. The interview was fun. The interviewer did his PhD in Haskell and compiler theory.

Around the same time, I applied to Facebook's Haskell group, and I got to interview with Simon Marlow, which was great. He also said that I didn't have enough Haskell experience and suggested that I do more Haskell consulting work, and re-apply in a year.

Anyway, I love coding in Haskell but my skills need improvement.
