As someone who hates most interview processes as a candidate, I like this one quite a bit. - it doesn't waste the candidate's time. If the candidate knows all about it: great! If they don't---it's never a bad time to learn/re-learn the fundamentals. - it avoids the "gotcha" approach that tests for whether you know a specific thing, right now. - it tests the candidate over time. Speaking as someone who used to rock interviews but did not perform as well over the long haul, I think this is an important distinction. I will read the other comments with interest, but initially I say: bravo.
