Potential alternative to white boarding algorithms: have the candidate do a code review. I think that would show the candidate’s communication style and attention to detail, in addition to their technical knowledge, and probably give a better sense of seniority too. Most code reviews are done in well under an hour anyway, vs actual dev work on a ticket that takes hours or days, so you’re doing more realistic swe work.
