I've had the same experience, having done exactly one, one-month RoR project and a lot of embedded Ruby. At the end of the day though, the couple of jobs I did investigate were really pretty shitty. One company asked me to do a coding challenge... I said, "Sure, about how long will it take me?" "I dont know." "What's the subject matter?" "I don't know." "How will you grade the test?" "I dont know." "When do you need it?" "Thursday." "So the only thing you know about this test is it has to be done right now?"
