Most arts have a portfolio, not an audition. Auditions are specific to the performing arts which programming is definitely not. Musically I'd equate programming more to composition, not performance as there is no audience.

Surely, he/she needs to be able to come up with lines/hooks/riffs/solos (when asked) and play part in the arrangement but composing from scratch and for multiple instruments would be rather out of scope. While there's no direct audience for studio musicians (only the output matters) there are definitely performance expectations and the studio musicians are expected to be efficient.
