hiring-without-whiteboards

Hiring Without Whiteboards is a community-driven directory of companies and teams that do not use "whiteboard" interviews. In this context, "whiteboards" serve as a metaphor for CS trivia questions, technical puzzles, and riddles, which the project associates with poor interview practices. Instead, the listed companies use interview techniques that resemble day-to-day work, such as pair programming on real-world problems, paid or unpaid take-home exercises, and practical technical discussions. The repository contains an extensive, alphabetized list of hundreds of companies across the globe. Each entry typically includes the company name, their office locations or remote status, and a brief description of their interview process. For example, some companies require a short take-home project followed by a code walkthrough, while others conduct conversational technical interviews focusing on past experience and problem-solving abilities. The project encourages public contributions via pull requests to add new companies or remove "duds" (companies whose actual interview processes no longer match their descriptions). It also provides links to external discussions and articles about alternative hiring methods.
