Doesn’t that require a lot of interpretive skill on the part of the interviewer? And for the interviewer to not arrive with the expectation that you will pass the same hazing ritual they passed to deserve that big paycheck? It’s been a long time since I interviewed at a FAANG but I don’t think my whiteboard mojo played much of a role. It was more down to my personality fit with the interviewers, and the correctness of my algo answers. Which were still pretty softball way back then. Everything I’ve read and heard since then makes me think it’s much more about those things now, and even less about general mental agility.
