You need to set the input format of the second job. It defaults to
TextInputFormat which is why you are seeing it become text. Use a line
like below in the second job.
secondjob.setInputFormat(SequenceFileInputFormat.class);
secondjob.setInputKeyClass(Text.class);
secondjob.setInputValueClass(Text.class);

I may be missing something silly here,
I have a MR that generates an output type (Text,Text)
Consuming that output for another MR it becomes a plain text file thus the
input is (LongWriteable, Text) with the long key being the line number and
the text value is the key+value separated by a tab and my second MR blow as
it was expecting (Text,Text) plus that the key is wrong.
Doing a cat of the file I see it become a flat file with lines having "key
\t value".
How can I force the output of the first MR to remain a sequence file of
(Text, Text)?
