Ruby Developer Interview Questions
"Ruby developers are responsible for developing code to build products using the Ruby programming language. In an interview context, expect to be quizzed on your technical skills through different kinds of computing problems or brainteasers. The specific questions you are asked will depend on what type of programming position you are looking for. Try researching a specific discipline such as web development, application development, or system development."
Describe a routine which returns the set of integers in {1..100} divisible without remainder by 3 but not by 9.

1) start from number = 3 Loop while(number <= 100) 2) display number 3) number = number+3, display number 4) number = number+6 Loop Less

put those integers into an array, pick every third element, out of which discard every third element. Less
This was a pair programming session with a Ruby engineer. They allow you to use your own laptop which was great but you only get 30 minutes to finish the problem with working unit tests. I think they re-use this pair programming problem so I'm not going to divulge details here. But it wasn't a particularly hard problem, they just want you to see how you code and test. Do not forget to write unit tests! Ideally you would develop it in a TDD fashion.

I wrote failing unit tests to determine the API first and then kept writing code until the tests succeeded. Less

Do they expect use of rspec, minitest or just simple assert methods for tdd?
Tiresome puzzle questions. Recommend looking up the standard ones and their solutions (no, these don't make someone a better software designer or programmer - they're a waste of time). Be prepared for a programming exercise as usual, but be prepared to ask for it in a font/format that's easier to read than Arial or whatever variable-spacing font was used, and without line-wraps. I got the impression that the printout was an afterthought, and the level of interest of the interviewer was minimal
