Multi-threading is a fairly simple concept, but takes a lot of skill to implement well in practice.
An issue that often comes up with multithreading (and in a lot of interviews) is the access to GUI elements. Not everyone may know that UI elements can only be changed on the main thread, and this can lead to some considerable frustration when attempting to debug a program that throws cross-thread exceptions.
