1. Explain the difference between ArcGIS Server standard and advanced.
2. Your customer wants to write a field based GIS application, what technology do you choose ArcEngine, ArcGIS Desktop, ArcMobile or ArcPad, pros and cons of each.(no real right answer)
3. What is the difference between ST_Geometry and SDO_Geometry.
4. Explain how the REST API, differs from the SOAP API and ArcObjects.

Of course this all depends on the job they will be expected to do. In interviews I prefer to get an idea of what projects with GIS the person has done, explaining why they took certain choices, what went wrong, what would they do if they could do it again.
