Whiteboard interviews are such bullshit unless your job is actually writing bare C or OS kernels or some shit. The stuff they have you do bears no relevance to the job being hired for, and and even if you were capable of performing them well at one point, if you've been in the industry for any amount of time (you know, actually creating software) you've likely forgotten half or more of it because it's shit you just don't use.
And it's a funny thing, most of the companies I've interviewed at that go hard on whiteboard questions typically have shit culture and are populated by MIT CS grads who overengineer everything and have zero sense when it comes to creating practical systems. The best company I've worked at so far had virtually no whiteboarding in their interviews and was mostly a ragtag team of self-taught folks with a only a couple of CS grads.
