It's things like this that make me wish I could sit in on developer interviews more. People I interview are generally on the systems administration and operations side. For those positions I'm trying to get a sense of troubleshooting ability, teamwork capability, ability to admit you were wrong, creativity, how thorough your documentation will be, how descriptive your ticket detail will be, attitude towards projects vs reactive work, and whether you want to be a maker or a doer. I'd love to see how a pair programming interview works, and I know that I'd be utterly awful as a candidate in such a process. Hopefully I'd learn something ;)
