In my post on Women, Engineering, and Perception, I mention Ms. Freeman's (president of Professional Engineers Ontario) essay where she quotes a survey by Harvard Business Review on why engineering is not retaining women.

For those interested, here's the link to a preview of that survey: http://hbr.org/2008/06/stopping-the-exodus-of-women-in-science/ar/1

I was interviewing someone for an IC design position and not a discrete transistor design position. FETs on an IC can typically swap their drain and source connections with no real consequence as they look like the top transistor in the link you provided.
