Hi, I was browsing this website trying to find some information on an upcoming technical interview for statistical modeling when I came across your interview experience.
I could be wrong but I think I know why your interview was harder then when you defended your masters theisis and why you did not get this job.
I think the company that interviewed you was interested in your technique for statistical analysis and wanted to know how to do it themselves without needing to hire you. I could be very wrong but that is my analysis of your interview experience.
Let me know what you think?!

The questions that they asked, really do not seem that hard. You should know what your dependent and independent variables are, if you are writing that paper! And you should know the assumptions that you are making. And you should know which variable you expect to find positive or negative and significant. Sorry to sound rude, but these questions are quite reasonable. Now they should have made you feel comfortable, which they did not and in that way, they clearly were bad interviewers.
