I would like a job writing Haskell

This is because creating the exact right abstraction for the job is time consuming. It may pay off later, and your typical FP person is fairly convinced that it will in terms of being able to be confident you got things right without having to test a lot of basic shit first (types tend to replace tests).

This is not suitable for the typical interview format.

That theory seems relatively sound. I'm digging more into functional programming again, because I think reading code needs to be easier than writing code, or at least reading code should be as easy as possible, and maybe it can meet that need.
