I've taken recently a row of interviews. I've had my first whiteboard exercise and it wasn't as bad as I've expected to be. It actually proved to be very useful, as I could abstract away details that I otherwise had to deal with if I had to implement the solutions on a computer. I've also had those five interviewers on the other side of the desk! It was pretty funny for me, but I concede it may have been stressful for somebody else.
