1. What do you provide when interviewers ask for code samples? Do you try to tailor your samples to the specific requirements of the job?
2. Has an interviewer ever asked you for proprietary code? What was your response?
3. Do you keep code you have worked on in the past, even if it is just for reference and you have no intention of showing it to anyone?
1. DBIx::Simple and whatever they can find when they google for Juerd; 2. Yes, but I won't give it because I by default keep all code between client and me confidential; 3. No, if I keep it around, it is to ease maintenance.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
