Follow up question. “What measures would you take to ensure this complies with relevant data protection regulations?”
If they give a somewhat competent answer, you at least know they’re the sort of developer that can critically analyse this sort of thing.

We hire devs to work on safety critical systems and do gauge for familiarity with standards applicable to our industry. This happens regardless of whether you're mid career or a new grad. I don't think it unreasonable to expect similar of devs working on systems where there are security or privacy considerations (which might as well be everything).
