What you're describing is the perfect way to evaluate a developer. That's exactly what I promote to my employers. That's what I ask at the last step of the hiring process if we still have a doubt. we should use this evaluation only and get rid of the extras. Then we should talk about life and work in general for an hour rather than a stupid algorithm question just to make sure the candidate isn't a d*ck.
