There are specialty board exams that you take once you're done with residency. Some are written exams. Surgical specialties do oral board exams where they present cases to you and question you on management. Pass rates for those are not as high. Many specialty boards make you take recertification exams every x number of years.

But again, these are not job interviews, they're professional licensing requirement imposed by the government, not by employers. And I don't think Facebook requires its engineers to re-interview for their own jobs every x number of years, so that's disanalogous too.
Ironically, the last thing that Facebook engineers want is for the government to regulate them. Just wait until they face the professional ethics boards. ;-) When has a programmer ever been kicked out of the industry for unethical behavior? More likely, they get promoted.
