So, we ask at the beginning to talk about a programming project that you've done it in past, but not about where you've worked. We don't ask for a work history until the end (by which point the notes and scoring that go into the final decision are over). We ask at the end so that we have the data to write posts like this.

Perhaps you've changed your policy? I'm pretty sure that's how my first interview started off. When I asked how that fit in with the advertising of "get a job based on something other than your resume", the response was "well, companies do care about which other companies you've worked at". After the second interview, I was given to Harj and he asked me about work history again... (Also, since I applied through the project track, I don't think there was much in the way of "tell us about a project you've done in the past".)
