Well, there is a long tradition of "testing" developer candidates by asking them to exhibit skills in tasks that they never, ever, do in their work. Like whiteboard coding.
It doesn't have a great success record.
I personally would rather they exhibited expert skills in using tools, and expressing their design insight as a part of that skillset.
