I did an interview not to long ago where the hiring manager was asking me all about Rails best practices, design patterns, and other Ruby-isms. Spent very little time talking about the actual problems he was trying to solve. Also spent a lot of time asking me how I’d fix an 1100 line controller with no tests and many code paths. He also talked a lot about how he had fired all of the developers that made this mess, and also needed to hire senior developers that could move quickly. It was a very strange interview.
