Really? Here's Joel writing about his interviewing technique for software developers, it's a 1 hour interview with the focus on letting the interviewee talk about how smart they are: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2006/10/25/the-guerrilla-guid...

    1. Introduction
    2. Question about recent project candidate worked on
    3. Easy Programming Question
    4. Pointer/Recursion Question
    5. Are you satisfied? [with your whiteboard code answer]
    6. Do you have any questions?
Has he changed from that in the last 20 years?
