Once when I was interviewing for a job, I was given and offer and I accepted it conditionally. I asked to sit with a senior developer for 30 minutes and browse the code. Turns out it was in great shape and the person that gave me the walkthrough was one of the greatest programmers I've ever had the pleasure to work with.

Do you do this for every job you apply to?

No. This company's main product (the one I would be working on) had been around for a long time so I was concerned about what kind of shape the code was in.
