This is the kind of interview I try to give.
My favorite interview question I ever had was to design an elevator system. There's no right answer. It wasn't even mostly code, it was mostly talking. But every so often, they'd say "write that as a method" and let me imagine whatever api I wanted. I had so much fun doing that.

- wry_discontent 6y agoI love elevatorsaga! It would be an interesting idea just to have a candidate go to the site and screenshare to watch them do some coding.
