Coding on a whiteboard while being questioned by two or more interviewers isn’t really a true representation of a work situation. It’s always more stressful and some people thrive on it, some people don’t. Im not sure what the better alternative is to demonstrate verba/technical communication skills however. The problem is, it’s hard to figure out if someone is a good fit with just a couple of hours of vigorous questioning. Maybe that’s the problem. I’d say I’ve worked with plenty of colleagues where it took me weeks or months to fully appreciate how extremely valuable they are to the team.
