Of course it is, it's a way to gauge whether "someone is dedicated to the job by cramming the algorithms section they haven't touched in years"
I've done dozens of interviews and after all of it, I realized there are only four qualities we quantify as useful: caring, ability to listen, ability to learn.
To be completely honest, it was a mistake... I forgot to add 'curiosity' after 'caring' but... I will now use this to figure out who is curious about the fourth one :D
