Whiteboards are bad for writing programs. Think about how often you write programs on whiteboard, it's mostly for diagrams and system flow not to write for and while loops for hard problems. My thinking pattern is different when I writ

I think you will be wasting your money and setting up a bad culture. How many rounds of review are you going to ? After the first round will you hire another one to do more rounds ? Although the product works, it seems you seem to want 100%

I disagree. What do you see so different in that blog post ? OP is struggling with interview puzzles not concepts of data structure, common algorithms. I think it is far too easy to devise a problem that even most current interviewers would
