2. Negotiate the terms of the interview: "hey instead of whiteboard puzzles here is some code I wrote that demonstrates my abilities."
3. Practice these, if you don't get anywhere. It's a bunch of work, but they tend to be repetitive. But you can also take control of the interview, e.g. by saying things like "I will write tests first", and sometimes the process for solving will impress them too.
