Yah, I've been interviewing a little lately, and while I understand the need to see if the person can code, white-boarding isn't really it. I've been doing this long enough that i've been the guy on the other end of the table more often than not.

Anyway, over the past couple years I've steadily moved into the take home test camp. These can be tweaked such that its apparent if someone tried to google an answer and use it.

But that said, I'm not sure I want to be implementing a "challenging" project for a job that I might never get. How much time do you think someone should be expected to put into a project for a job they might not get. How about if they are interviewing at a half dozen places?
