Exactly this. And we didn't use 'toy' problems like FizzBuzz either, it was 'connect to our DB, pull the following data, do some computation, present it in a UI' kind of stuff.

I am not native English but reread it a few times now and it still reads like you approve with the OP in coding on a whiteboard as interview practice and calling that a softskill. But yes what you suggest here is what we do. And that is actually fun for the coder (if not highly anti social) as well as it is for the team too.
