If a candidate regurgitated my questions as answers in an interview,
I'd dismiss her as a fool.  If I want my questions reworded as answers,
I can run the program DOCTOR, which was old hat when I was in knee
pants.  I don't have to pay someone to do it.  Of course, there are
employers who do want their charges to echo the company line.  Would
you like to work for such employers?
