Pretty much every interview I've had has been like that. Asking lots of exam style question about the language/platform.
In my experience most employers say they want good programmers, but in reality they want quick programmers. People who can get the product out the door ASAP. And that's why I wouldn't take a Java job without learning the ecosystem first. Even if they promise training, there's a high chance of them reneging. So I would end up in a stressful situation trying to learn as I go.
I'd rather stick with what I know and what I'm good at.
