You missed my point. People are prepared to talk about their resume, but when you dig in to their past experience and specifics that is where you get to the interesting discussions. Case and point: Tell me about a design pattern you used on X project? A singleton? Ok, why did you use that? and a long discussion about testability and architecture ensues with questions from both sides. That is WAY more like the communication that happens on the job than a contrived problem which in many cases is disconnected from real life constraints.
