I've had interviews with take home assignment, nothing to big, like refactor and write unit-test.
Other interviews have been more a conversation about my resume, like it said I worked at X company with Z, Y technologies and just had a conversation about that.
Honestly I think this is enough, if someone managed to study at a university for 5 years get an engineering degree hold similar positions as the one you are applying to, why do whiteboarding, take-home etc. You can tell rather quick when you have a casual conversation if the applicant knows what they are talking about and also if you would like to work together. This is usually something you can tell after 5-10 minutes talking to each other :)
