I've given some interviews for programming positions. I find it
worthless to ask questions about the language; instead, I ask the
applicant *what they've done* with the language.
Then, I ask them to write some code, usually something simple but
poorly-specified, and observe their approach to the task. That tells
me far more about their knowledge of the language than answers to quiz
questions; it also tells me far more about them as a programmer, which
is what I actually care about.
