When I interviewed at Google I was making iOS apps using Objective-C at my current job, so I decided to stick with that for the whiteboard so I wouldn't blank out on some syntax at an inopportune time. Big mistake. The method names get so long I was kept running out of space on the whiteboard and it took forever to write it. I don't remember exactly what I wrote anymore (it was over a decade ago), but this site[1] has some examples of really long property and method names in Cocoa (its framework), like: splitViewControllerPreferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation or initWithBitmapDataPlanes:pixelsWide:pixelsHigh:bitsPerSample:samplesPerPixel:hasAlpha:isPlanar:colorSpaceName:bitmapFormat:bytesPerRow:bitsPerPixel: Anyway, for that and other reasons I didn't get the job (I apparently didn't prepare quite the right things, despite preparing for a few hours every night for the two weeks prior, which is how long the recruiter gave me before flying me to Mountain View, so my performance for at least two of the six interviews I had that day were a bit weak).
