I find "Where do you want to go, how will you get there and what
problems will you encounter?"  more interesting questions than "Where
are you now?".  These questions have right answers: the answers you
get offer good starting points to ask more questions and figure out
how well you'll fit in.

I've introduced, migrated or enhanced version control systems, bug
trackers and release processes at various places I've worked, and I
quite enjoy it.  I wouldn't have the chance to do that somewhere that
already had everything sorted out, if such places exist.
