Is that an amarican thing? I had some interviews in Germany and they first wanted to know me on a personal basis and asked how experienced I would consider myself. When they think that I'm a good fit for the job they invited me to a one day (or half a day) work trial and gave me typical development tasks for the job.
I think that this works very well because you don't have to study for the interview and the employer can see how well you fit in the team, what your thought processes are and how clean your code is

American mostly. I also had the same experience when I interviewed with a company in Indonesia.
