My standard coding question is a funny-looking prime sieve. If someone isn't familiar with one, we can work it through together and I'll have a much better idea of their learning potential & what they'll be like to work with than the intern straight out of their Algorithms final.

In the end though, management wasn't for me, and so I ended changing roles for something non-managerial
