SD Ruby,

Though I've been building apps in Rails for over 8 years I've never 
actually interviewed specifically for a Ruby on Rails senior developer 
position.  I'm suddenly left wondering how much stuff I don't know!

Of course I Googled the topic, and here are a few decent results:

http://www.toptal.com/ruby-on-rails/interview-questions

https://gist.github.com/ryansobol/5252653

https://github.com/afeld/rails_interview_questions


I also asked someone who's well-known in the Ruby community, and his 
answers were:

   - Knows how the metaprogramming works that makes Rails work
   - Knows a bit of Rails internals
   - Fully understands how Bundler etc. work
   - Gets how concurrency works in the various web servers and what the 
   tradeoffs would be
   - Has opinions and good ideas about good OO design and architecture in 
   the context of a Rails application (as opposed to letting the framework 
   rule)
   - Fully versed in all the REST stuff
   - Good knowledge of troubleshooting production issues
   

Anyone else have suggestions?  If you've been through a senior Rails 
developer interview, what else were you asked?  What did they stump you on?

Cheers,

Chris
