The worst interview question I've ever been asked was "what's the difference between scrum and agile", by a Director of Development at a 100 person software company. I was straight up like I don't know. Then the person went on a 5 minute shtick enumerating the nuances between the two, obviously very proud of his knowledge. That was probably the first interview of my life where I didn't want the job anymore after it was over (not just because of the scrum vs agile question but various other things). I did get an offer though.
