Could you expand into why you think this question is indicative of a workplace with "little-to-no learning" on the job?
I ask this question to new grad candidates with no expected answer in mind. The goal is to establish some level of technical competency and discover the candidates' interests. Do they talk about kernel, network, backend, frontend, etc?
The percentage of candidates who can spend more than 1 minute answering is abysmally low. If I get a curt response I'll follow up with relevant questions to the position they're applying for.
