Serialize Object

Question

I am new to serialization, and I can’t understand for my whole life how to fix this exception that I get ...

I have an object that has the following structure

[XmlRoot("MaxCut2")]
public class MaxCut2File : IFile
{
    public MaxCut2File()
    {
        MyJob = new Job();
        Job.Reference = "MyRef";
    }

    [XmlElement("JobDetails", typeof(Job))]
    public IJob MyJob
    {
        get;
        set;
    }    
}

Inner surface...

   public interface IJob
    {        
        string Reference { get; set; }
    }

And class

[Serializable()]
public class Job : IJob
{
    [XmlElement("Reference")]
    public string Reference { get; set; }
}

When I try to serialize an instance of a MaxCut2File object, I get an error

{"Cannot serialize member 'MaxCut2File.MaxCut2File.MyJob' of type 'MaxCut2BL.Interfaces.IJob', see internal exception for more details." } "There was an error reflecting the type" MaxCut2File.MaxCut2File ".

However, if I change my MyJob property from IJob type to job type, it works fine ...

Any ideas?
