I'm glad to read that. I focus a lot on those aspects of the job, and I think that they are very important to produce good work. These are the aspect of the job I love most. Interviewers around here (south of france) don't seem to be interested in that. They tend to ask very specific questions about languages or framework instead.

I interviewed with a few French companies over a year ago in the case that I might have to move back home. I believe it is starting to change. Your experience is pretty reflective of what I heard from others as well.
