Bonfire Extinguished

I officially didn't get the Bonfire job.  Not a huge surprise, but a part of me was hoping I did get it.  I still think I'm really close though.  I think my portfolio is good enough to get me in the door now.  I need to work on patching up my technical expertise now so I can hold my own in an interview.  Here are the areas that I will work on before the next interview:
  1. Memory management - I need to have a firm grasp on the best practices around managing memory in C++ and C#.  This was the area where I struggled the most in my interview
  2. Review all my major works - make sure I can confidently discuss all of my code
  3. Understand how objects work in c++ and c# - I need to know how objects are stored, passed as parameters and destructed for both c++ and c#
  4. Shaders - I put on my resume that I am interested in graphics programming, but I have very little experience with shaders.
  5. 3d math - Need to firmly know all the applications of math operations, not necessarily the formulas.
If I focus on the above, I should be much better off for my next interview.
