I live in Europe, but got a couple of remote US jobs over the years. Didn't get a single whiteboarding exercise in them. At most, there were live coding exercises, but one where they were interested in how well I know the language/frameworks, what is my thinking process, how do I structure the code, how do I handle errors and unexpected states etc. - so, in essence, the things relevant to daily coding tasks, not some algorithmic trivia.
