Here's a different anecdote:
I've had two Clojure-only jobs here in Denmark and neither of them had any homework assignments. I got hired at the first and only interview in both cases. One was my first job after finishing uni and the other one was the job after that.
Now I work at Copenhagen University, also writing Clojure and ClojureScript (so the third Clojure job, although it was never advertised as such) along with a little bit of Java for projects inherited from my predecessor. I didn't have any programming assignment while interviewing here either.
It's not that we don't get interview assignments in Denmark, but I've only had to do them in Python, PHP, Java, and Javascript - i.e. mainstream languages.
