Completely empathize with your experience. Whiteboard interviews just aren't sufficient for gauging the skill-level of a dev. It also makes it difficult to figure out how well that individual can function in a team environment because the whiteboard interview is so artificial. Ensuring that the interviewee is embedded in an experience that more closely resembles the collaborative setting software is built in usually produces a better result for everyone involved.
This is actually what led @tonymastrorio
and I to build Whiteboardfree. You can use the site to find jobs at companies that don't whiteboard during the technical interview process. No need to hassle with those interviews anymore :)
So if the company doesn’t do a whiteboard interview, doesn’t give out coding exercises, then how should they get an idea of the candidates capabilities??
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
