As an embedded systems engineer, I disagree. I have never been asked to design a circuit, or even pseudocode firmware, on a whiteboard. In the electronics manufacturing industry, interviews consist of talking, mostly about projects I've worked on before and projects they've done before. Occasionally someone will give me the same written test they give technicians, but those tend to be pretty easy.
